MANGOES WITH COGNAC
2 ripe mangoes (about 12 oz. each)
3 Tbsp. sugar
2 Tbsp. Cognac, rum, whiskey or vanilla
3 Tbsp. lime juice
2 to 3 strips lime zest, julienned* (for serving)
Fresh mint leaves (for garnish)
Peel the mangoes, cutting deeply enough into the fruit so that any
green-colored flesh is also removed. Then cutting inward, toward the pit, slice each of the mangoes into slivers about 1/2-inch thick. Discard the pits.
In a bowl, combine the mango slivers with the sugar, Cognac and lime juice. Serve immediately, or, for added flavor, chill for at least 2 hours, stirring occasionally.
Serve in chilled glasses, sprinkled with the julienned lime zest. Garnish with fresh mint leaves.
*To julienne the lime zest, stack the strips, cut them into thin matchsticks. (You should have about 1 Tbsp.)
