Neatly arranged circles of orange and blood oranges, pink and red grapefruits, beautifully arranged on a platter, will look bright and appetizing, summer-like, and will decorate your holiday table. The sliced fruit is drizzled with a natural vanilla syrup and left to steep in the refrigerator for several hours before serving. The sweetness of the syrup and the luxurious vanilla aroma harmoniously complement the citrus fruits. The result is delicious and unusual. Serve as an appetizer or a light dessert.
