Kaitlyn’s Ambrosia

 

12 oranges

4 kiwi, peeled, halved, and sliced

1/2cup dry sherry

6tsp. sugar

2Tbsp Cointreau or any orange liqueur

1/2cup unsweetened cocunut, grated or shaved, fresh or dried

 

Cut the peel and white pith from the oranges.  Place a sieve over a bowl,

and working over bowl, cut the orange sections from between the membranes,

allowing the sections to fall in sieve (discard seeds).  When you have cut

all segments out, squeeze to get remaining juice.  Measure out 1/2 cup of

the juice and set aside.

Arrange 1/3 of the sections in bottom of a clear bowl and sprinkle with

3tsp sugar.  Arrange half the kiwi, then another 1/3 of the orange over

top.  Sprinkle with remaining sugar.

In small bowl, combine sherry, orange liquor, and the reserved 1/2cup

orange juice.  Pour over fruit.  Cover and chill for at least 2 hours

or overnight.  Before serving, garnish with coconut.

 

I like adding fresh cherries too.
