I had been shopping at Sprouts Market here in California and came across a very large assortment of exotic fruits. Although I knew of all of them, I hadn’t tried many of them. I bought one of everything and started playing with them. First, I tasted them all (that was fun). Than, I knew there was going to be several cocktails (some of the colors were fabulous and were just screaming for me to turn them into a cocktail!) Check out my Star Fruit Cocktail and the Kiwano Cocktail recipes and you’ll get the idea. But I knew, I’d make an exotic fruit salad with honey lime dressing for sure.
I also made a salsa and a few dips but I knew I wanted to pull together a tropical fruit salad and this is the result. Many of the fruits are mild in flavor so I added berries to add a little sweet and a little tart. (Not to mention, the colors were spectacular!) The honey lime dressing really balances the whole thing out. This would be great as a side dish with grilled fish or chicken.
If you like this salad, be sure to try some of my other favorite fruit salads:
