Jan had an idea Thanksgiving Day morning of a mojito dressing for the fruit salad she was making. Unfortunately we were out of regular mint and we only had the spearmint that grows as a weed in our yard. We did however have mint and rum extracts in the cupboard. This is what she came up with:
Ingredients
Dressing
2 Lime, juiced
1 Tbs. honey, warmed
4 drops Rum extract
¼ tsp Mint extract
Selection of fruit (your choice)
Apples
Bananas
Grapes
Kiwis
Mango
Melon
Pineapple
Strawberries
Directions
1. Mix the dressing ingredients and let meld for a few minutes while you chop the fruit, everything except the bananas.
2. Put the fruit in a large bowl and toss with the dressing.
3. Chill for an hour, tossing occasionally.
4. Add the bananas, toss once more and serve.
