How to Make Sparkling Fruit

  1. Gently wash and hull 1 pint of strawberries, then slice them into halves or quarters.
  2. Peel and segment 1 orange and 1 grapefruit.
  3. Dice 1 cup of honeydew melon and 1 cup of cantaloupe.
  4. Combine the prepared fruits in a large, shallow bowl. Avoid crushing the fruit.
  5. In a small bowl, combine 2 tablespoons of granulated sugar, 2 tablespoons of chopped fresh mint leaves, and a pinch of freshly grated nutmeg.
  6. Evenly sprinkle the sugar and mint mixture over the fruit and gently toss to combine.
  7. Slowly pour 1 cup of chilled champagne (or other sparkling wine) over the fruit, ensuring it's almost completely covered. You may adjust based on the amount of fruit.
  8. Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or up to 2 hours, to allow the flavors to meld and the fruit to chill thoroughly.
  9. Before serving, give the salad a gentle stir.
  10. Serve chilled in elegant champagne flutes or small dessert bowls. Garnish with extra mint sprigs if desired.
