This eye-catching fruit mélange also includes kiwi, which isn't tropical but is very colorful and refreshing. Using store-bought sorbet makes this even easier to prepare.
3 kiwis, peeled, halved crosswise, each half quartered
1 mango, peeled, pitted, cut into 3/4-inch pieces
1 1/2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
1 teaspoon grated lime peel
1 1/2 pints mango sorbet
Directions
Combine 3/4 cup water, wine and sugar in small saucepan. Bring to boil, stirring until sugar dissolves. Chill syrup until cold.

Scoop 1/2 cup mango sorbet into each of 6 compote dishes or wineglasses. Spoon fruit mixture around sorbet.
