Why This Recipe Works
We wanted a recipe for fruit salad that would be more than simply a mix of fruits. In our Lovers Lane Fruit Salad recipe, we found that a simple sugar syrup not only added moisture, but also coaxed flavor from the fruit. Vanilla syrup was a subtle but delicious way to add even more flavor to our Lovers Lane Fruit Salad.
