Ingredients
The following ingredients have 4 Servings
- 3/4 cup diced fresh strawberries
- 3/4 cup diced fresh pineapple
- 1 orange, (peeled & cut in segments then halved)
- 1 nectarine, (diced)
- 1/2 cup green grapes, (halved)
- 2-3 Tablespoons white rum, (Grand Marnier or Cointreau)
- 1-2 Tablespoons sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon lime or lemon zest
- 2 Tablespoons sugar
- Red food coloring
- Lime or lemon slice or peel ((optional))
- 4 whole strawberries ((optional))
Instruction
- Mix rum & sugar in large bowl until sugar dissolves, stirring occasionally. Add remaining ingredients and toss to coat. Place in refrigerator until ready to serve.
- On a small plate, large enough to dip your glass onto, spread sugar for rim evenly over surface.
- Add 1-2 drops red food coloring, blending well. You can also use store-bought colored sugar.
- Just prior to serving, take a lemon or lime wedge, and run it around the rim of martini glass. While rim is wet, place upside down into colored sugar to coat.
- Carefully spoon in fruit cocktail mixture so as not to ruin your colored sugar rim. Garnish with a toothpick containing a slice of lime/lemon and a strawberry or top with a curled slice of lemon, lime or orange peel. You can also just add the garnishes to the rim of the glass.
