Ingredients

12 ounces green grapes

2 cups water

1 cup sugar

1 cup lemon thyme or regular thyme sprigs, coarsely chopped

1 green apple

3 kiwifruits, peeled and sliced

4 to 5 cups honeydew melon balls (from 2 melons)

Preparation

Freeze grapes on a rimmed baking sheet for 1 hour.

Meanwhile, make the syrup: Bring water and sugar to a simmer in a medium saucepan, stirring until sugar dissolves. Remove from heat, and add lemon thyme. Let stand, covered, until cooled completely. Strain syrup through a fine sieve; discard solids.

Thinly slice apple. Divide apple, kiwifruits, melon, and grapes among 8 bowls. Pour syrup over tops just before serving.
