I love fruit salads, especially during the summer. They are bright and colorful and the ingredients can be changed based on what's in season or based on personal preference. This salad has a nice assortment of color with green and red grapes and blueberries. The fruit is tossed in a simple syrup flavored with cinnamon and star anise and garnished with fresh mint. I love the cinnamon and anise combination, so I often have this syrup on hand in my fridge.
This salad is a great addition to a brunch table and makes a light summertime dessert.
