Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
1/2 Canteloupe
8 oz Grapes -- peeled
4 sl Pineapple -- diced
1/3 c Caster sugar -- superfine
2 Peaches -- peeled, pitted, cubed
2 tb Rum
1/4 c Cognac
3 oz Strawberries -- hulled
1/2 Bottle sweet spumante
3 oz Blueberries -- trimmed
Remove rind, seeds and center filaments from the melon; scoop the
flesh into balls with a melon baller. Put all the fruits into a bowl
and add the sugar, rum, and cognac. Pour the spumante over.
Refrigerate for at least 2 hours before serving.
Note:
Take care in purchasing the Spumante not to get a bottle that is too
dry. Moscato is your best choice, as it tends to run from slightly
sweet to very sweet... and for dessert, you will want it to be sweet.
