Try a White Wine Fruit Cocktail This 4th of July

Big plans for the Holiday weekend?  We will be headed to a BBQ, and just may have a container of this party-friendly, warm weather treat in tow…

White Wine Fruit Cocktail

1 1/4 cups dry white wine
1/3 cup white sugar
1 tablespoon chopped fresh mint
1/2 cantaloupe, cut into bite-size pieces
1 cup seedless green grapes, halved
1 pint fresh strawberries, hulled and halved

Combine the wine and sugar in a saucepan. Place the saucepan over medium heat and bring to a boil; stirring to dissolve sugar. Remove the saucepan from the heat and add the mint; set aside. Combine the cantaloupe, grapes, and strawberries in a large bowl. Pour the wine mixture over the fruit; toss together until all the fruit is covered with the wine mixture; cover and chill. Store in the refrigerator up to 8 hours before serving.

Have a Happy 4th of July, everyone!
