Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 whole Oranges
- 2 whole Ruby Red Grapefruit
- 250 grams Seedless Red or Green Grapes
- 2 tablespoons Honey
- 1 Cinnamon Stick
- 100 milliliters Water
- 4 leaves Mint Leaves (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Peel the oranges and grapefruit, removing as much of the white pith as possible. Segment the fruit by cutting between the membranes to release the segments. Set aside in a medium-sized mixing bowl.
Slice the grapes in half lengthwise. Add them to the bowl with the orange and grapefruit segments.
In a saucepan, combine the honey, cinnamon stick, and water. Place over medium heat and bring to a gentle simmer. Stir until the honey dissolves completely, then let it simmer for about 5 minutes to infuse with the cinnamon flavor.
Remove the cinnamon stick and pour the warm syrup over the prepared fruit. Gently toss the fruit to coat it in the syrup evenly.
Let the compote cool to room temperature, then transfer it to the refrigerator. Chill for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
Serve the compote chilled, optionally garnished with fresh mint leaves.
