Number Of Ingredients 10

8 tablespoons sugar
10 tablespoons lemon juice
1/2 cup Grand Marnier
6 cups Fruit Salad, see below
Fresh mint leaves for garnish
6 cups assorted sliced fruit
4 tablespoons granulated sugar
5 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice
4 tablespoons Grand Marnier
Fresh mint leaves for garnish

Steps:

Place the sugar, lemon juice, and Grand Marnier in a mixing bowl. Whisk until well blended. Let sit for 15 minutes. Divide the fruit salad among 6 wide, shallow soup bowls. Ladle the Grand Marnier mixture over the fruit, and serve immediately, garnished with the mint leaves.
Place the fruit in a large mixing bowl. Sprinkle with the sugar, and toss lightly. Add the lemon juice and Grand Marnier, and toss again. Let sit for 10 to 30 minutes, either on a counter (if you like a warmer salad) or in the refrigerator (if you like a colder salad). Divide among 6 dinner plates. Garnish with mint leaves, and serve.
