Before You Begin
Seedless watermelon works best for this recipe. You will need about a quarter of a large watermelon.
Instructions

Why This Recipe Works
A sugar syrup is the best way to sweeten and moisten a bowl of cut fruit, but can a quick fruit syrup do more? We wanted our fruit salad recipe to have fresh fruit flavor, and a big jolt from a quick fruit syrup. Adding potent seasonings like honey and ginger to the syrup as it cooked perked up the flavor. Mashing (with a potato masher) the watermelon with a splash of citrus in the simmering syrup provided even more flavor to our fruit salad recipe.
