Fruit Salad with Ginger Syrup ~Secret Recipe Club Challenge

This is my 3rd assignment with the Secret Recipe Club.The aim of the club is that you are allocated a blog from which you have to select  a recipe and try  it and blog about it.

My assigned blog was  Jo's who blogs at Cairns Manor .Being a vegetarian I searched the blog for a veggie recipe, this is when I came across this refreshing fruit salad.The recipe was simple to follow  and was very healthy and delicious. Only changes I made was that I halved the quantity of the syrup ingredients to make less.The Original recipe can be found here
