Ingredients
  

1 cup fresh pineapple, diced

1 cup strawberries, hulled and sliced

1 cup blueberries

1 cup kiwi, peeled and sliced

1 banana, sliced

1/2 cup shredded unsweetened coconut

Zest of 1 lime

Juice of 2 limes

1 tablespoon honey (optional for sweetness)

Fresh mint leaves for garnish

Instructions
 

Prepare the Fruit: Begin by washing all the berries thoroughly under cold water. Hull the strawberries and slice them into quarters. Peel and slice the kiwi and banana.

    Mix the Fruits: In a large mixing bowl, combine the diced pineapple, sliced strawberries, blueberries, sliced kiwi, and banana. Gently toss the fruits together to ensure they are evenly mixed.

      Make the Dressing: In a small bowl, whisk together the lime juice, lime zest, and honey (if using). This will be the zesty dressing that enhances the salad's flavor.

        Combine: Pour the lime dressing over the mixed fruits and gently fold to ensure the dressing is evenly coated on all the fruits.

          Add Coconut: Sprinkle the shredded coconut over the salad and give it another gentle toss to incorporate.

            Chill: Allow the fruit salad to chill in the refrigerator for about 20-30 minutes before serving. This will help meld the flavors together and keep the salad refreshing.

              Serve: When ready to serve, give the salad a final toss, and garnish with fresh mint leaves for that extra pop of freshness and color!
