Preparation

Step 1

For the Light Syrup: Heat the sugar, honey, vanilla bean, lemon juice and water in a saucepan. Bring to a boil for 1 minute and remove the pan from the heat. Let the syrup cool. Discard the bean or serve it with the syrup. It is chewy and delicious.

For the Fruit: Peel the peaches, discarding the pits, and dice them into 3/4-inch pieces. Dice the nectarines into 3/4-inch pieces. Gently stir the peaches and nectarines into the syrup. Divide the fruit among serving bowls and garnish each with mint sprigs.
