Serves 8
A light lime syrup harmonizes the flavors of the fruits in this salad. Use whatever fruit you have on hand, but if you plan to use apples, pears, or bananas, add them just before serving so that they don't brown. If you want to add carambola (star fruit), look for fruit that is beginning to turn golden yellow with slightly brown edges—unripe green fruit may be sour.
2 Tbs. lime juice
2 Tbs. sugar
2 Tbs. finely chopped fresh mint, plus sprigs for garnish
