Fruit salad question:
I want to "spike" the fruit salad but don't know if I should use, vodka, gin, or something else. It will have melon balls, grapes, blueberries, pineapple and whatever else I can find that's ripe. Any suggestions would be most appreciated.

Thanks!

:)

1. I would go with the Vodka
It doesn't have much taste of it's own and would let the fruit flavors shine through.

2. Vodka or rum
If it were mine, I'd choose rum, hands down.

3. Tequila

6. I'll second the tequila and
Add a suggestion of any vanilla liqueur including (major brand) spiced rum.

Not much, just a splash. :-)

8. Another thought: a simple syrup with fresh mint, lemon
juice would be nice.
