1 cup instant couscous
2 cups apple and cranberry juice
1 cinnamon stick
2 teaspoons orange or grapefruit zest
8 oz fresh raspberries
8 oz fresh blueberries
8 oz fresh strawberries, halved
2 tablespoons golden syrup
fresh mint leaves (optional)
6 1/2 oz Greek yoghurt (optional)

1
Place the couscous in a large bowl. Pour the apple and cranberry juice into a saucepan with the cinnamon stick. Cover and bring to the boil, then remove from heat and pour over the couscous. Cover the couscous with plastic wrap, and let sit for 5 minutes, or until all the liquid has been absorbed. Remove the cinnamon stick from the bowl.
2
Gently fold in the zest and fresh berries. Spoon the couscous mixture into serving bowls and drizzle with the golden syrup. May be served with a dollop of the yoghurt and garnished with the mint leave, but is fine without them.
