Directions
Step 1
Rinse the cranberries and raspberries under cold water and set them aside to dry.
Step 2
In a small saucepan, combine the orange juice and sugar. Heat over medium-low heat, stirring occasionally, until the sugar dissolves completely. Remove from heat and let the mixture cool to room temperature.

Core and dice the granny smith apple into small bite-sized pieces. Leave the skin on for added texture and color.
Step 4
Halve the seedless red grapes if they are large.
Step 5
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cranberries, raspberries, diced apple, and halved grapes.
Step 6
Pour the cooled orange juice and sugar mixture over the fruit and toss gently to coat everything evenly.
Step 7
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate the salad for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
Step 8
Before serving, sprinkle the chopped pecans over the salad for a delightful crunch.
Step 9
Garnish with fresh mint leaves if desired. Serve chilled.
