A great summertime salad because you can take advantage of the many seasonal fruits available. In winter, canned and frozen can be substituted. A veritable explosion of fruits with a hint of licorice. Recipe & photo from: http://www.tasteofhome.com/Recipes/Anise-Fruit-Salad

Cover and cool to room temperature, about 30 minutes.
  • Step 2
    Meanwhile, combine honeydew, pineapple, cantaloupe, grapes and oranges in a large bowl. Pour aniseed mixture over the fruit; toss to coat.
