Orange Salad with Cinnamon

This might not sound exciting at first when you hear the name, but this dessert is like candy. Sliced oranges are sprinkled with cinnamon and drizzled with a dressing of orange juice, orange blossom water, and honey; giving the orange slices a sugary herbaceous taste. The addition of mint gives the oranges a refreshing essence that balances out this dessert.
