Served chilled, this fruit recipe is a nice addition to add color and flavor to your breakfast or brunch table.

The warm bright inviting colors of the fruits are eye catching and add that needed punch of color when you are serving a special brunch menu. A hint of cinnamon adds a deep rich flavor to the fruit juices.

A compote is a nice accompaniment to a breakfast casserole because of the tartness of the fruit and the sweetness from the sugar. The flavors complement each other and rounds out the meal.

This fruit recipe is wonderful for a holiday brunch menu, but tastes great any time of year.
