Ingredients

½ C fresh orange juice

¼ C lime juice

2 C light brown sugar

4 T dark rum

1 ripe cantaloupe

1 ripe honeydew

1 wedge watermelon

3 small, ripe pineapples with tops

1 pint strawberries, hulled and sliced

Directions

In a saucepan, combine juices and brown sugar. Heat to boiling, boil one minute. Cool to room temperature and add rum. Cut the whole melons in half, remove seeds, make balls using a melon baller, put into large bowl. Repeat with watermelon wedges.

Carefully slice pineapples in half. Using a grapefruit knife, scoop out fruit in one piece from each half. Remove core and cut fruit into bite-size pieces. Combine rum mixture with all fruits, toss to coat. Refrigerate covered, for an hour. Cover and refrigerate the pineapple halves also. To serve, fill shells with fruit and garnish with mint. Serves 6.
