-------- ------------ --------------------------------

4 navel oranges -- see note*

2 pink grapefruits

2 1/2 cups fresh orange juice

3 tablespoons orange flower water

2 tablespoons honey

1 vanilla bean -- halved lengthwise, seeds scraped

1/2 teaspoon cinnamon

Small mint leaves -- for garnish

 

1. Using a sharp knife, peel the oranges and grapefruits, removing all of

the bitter white pith. Cut in between the membranes to release the sections

into a bowl. Squeeze the juice from the membranes into another bowl.

 

2. Add the orange juice, orange flower water, honey, vanilla bean seeds and

cinnamon to the bowl of juice and whisk to mix. Strain the flavored juice

over the fruit and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or overnight. Spoon the

fruit salad into glasses or bowls, garnish with mint leaves and serve.
