Strawberry Mango Lime Syrup

I’m just coming out of three birthday’s in a row, so I’ve got some catching up to do!

Is Strawberry-Mango combination truly such a novelty?  (I search and could not find!)What a pair they make!  I basically had to make this syrup recipe up.  It was delicious!  Now you can thank me tomorrow morning for this priceless little invention as you are spooning it over your warm pancakes. :)

Strawberry Mango Lime Syrup (By Lyd)

• 4 cups chopped ripe mango, from 2 (1-pound) mangoes
• 1 cup fresh strawberries, chopped
• 1/2 cup sugar
• 1 and 1/2 cup water
• 2 tablespoons fresh lime juice, or to taste
• 2-3 tablespoons cornstarch
• pinch of cinnamon

In a small pot, stir cool water and cornstarch together until well mixed.  Turn on heat to medium.  Add sugar, lime and cinnamon and bring to a boil.  Reduce heat and add fruit.  Don’t over cook the fruit—unless you like it that way- I just like mine a little fresher.

Lyd’s Confession:

I have never properly cut up a mango before, so I turned to good old YouTube for a tutorial… thought I would share in case you are in the same boat. :)
