Stone Fruit with Ginger-Lime Syrup and Mint
This post may contain affiliate links. Read my full disclosure policy. With peaches, nectarines, and plums in a zesty ginger-lime syrup, this stone fruit salad is the perfect light and refreshing summer dessert. Sliced peaches, nectarines and plums go from simple to sublime when soaked in a refreshing ginger-lime syrup infused with fresh mint. Be sure to let the fruit marinate for at least 45 minutes but not too much longer or the ginger will mellow out. Serve alone as a light dessert or a lovely accompaniment to pound cake, vanilla ice cream, or both!
