Mango Jubilee

Ingredients:

• ½ Cup Sugar (can reduce by half depending on fruit type)
• 1 Tablespoon Corn Starch
• ¼ Cup Water (often just use additional juice)
• ¼ Cup Orange Juice (alternates OK (have tried Apple and Cranberry))
• 3 Cups Sweet Cherries -- Pitted (substituted 1 mango per cup of cherries)
• ½ Teaspoon Orange Zest -- Freshly Grated
• ¼ Cup Brandy or other high-proof liqueur (optional)
• 1 Quart Vanilla Ice Cream

Combine sugar and corn starch. Blend in water and orange juice. Cook and stir till thickened and smooth. Add cherries and orange peel; return to boil and simmer 10 minutes. Gently heat brandy, pour over sauce and flame if desired. Serve over ice cream.

Besides cherries and mango, have also used strawberries, blueberries, mixed berries, and peaches.
