- 2 ruby red grapefruits, segmented and juice reserved
- 2 yellow grapefruits, segmented and juice reserved
- 2 Navel oranges, segmented and juice reserved
- 2 tablespoons honey
- One 2-inch piece fresh ginger, cut in half
- 1 pint fresh blueberries, picked over and rinsed
- Put the almonds, sugar and mint in a food processor and pulse briefly to make a coarse streusel-like topping.
- Transfer to a small bowl.
- Combine the grapefruits and oranges in a large decorative bowl.
- Combine the reserved citrus juices in a small saucepan (you should have at least 2 cups, if you don't, add enough fresh orange or grapefruit juice to make up the difference).
- Add the honey and fresh ginger and bring to a boil.
- Cook until the mixture is reduced by half.
- Remove from the heat and let cool to room temperature, at least 30 minutes.
