Sarasota's Easy Fruit Sauce With a Kick

• 2 -2 12 cups strawberries, fresh, rough chopped (frozen will also work, but please thaw)
• 2 cups mangoes, fresh rough chopped (same thing, frozen is ok, but please thaw first)
• 1 tablespoon brown sugar (I use light brown)
• 1 tablespoon rum (golden rum)
• honey, to taste (approximately 1 teaspoon)
• 18 cup water
• 1 pinch salt

1. Fruit -- Now this is a basic NO recipe -- recipe.
2. It can be made with more or less strawberries or mango and even pineapple.
3. About 4 cups (more or less fruit is what you need).
4. Fresh peaches, blueberries, cherries - all fresh fruit works for this.
5. Keep the sugar the same, but more or less honey depending on how sweet you like it.
6. It really depends on the sweetness of your fruit.
7. Also, rum, I like golden rum, but if you don't want alcohol -- use an extract or even use almond extract, that is a nice flavor.
8. I happen to like rum in mine.
9. Just add everything but the rum (or extract) in a small pot and simmer on medium low for about 15 minutes (uncovered).
10. Then add the rum or extract and cook another 5 minutes.
11. Done!
12. The fruit will be broken down and you can even mash it up a bit more if you want with a fork or a potato masher.
13. It just depends how you like it as far as the texture goes.
14. I like mine a bit chunky.
15. Serve -- Pour over cheese blintzes, waffles, pancakes, great with monte cristo sandwiches, over ice cream, and french toast.
16. Easy to make ahead and then just reheat in the microwave.
17. ENJOY!
