Fruit salad is a delicious and healthy dessert option for summertime. Here are the essential things you need to do for the best fruit salad ever!

Seasonal is key

The secret to a great fruit salad is using seasonal fruits. High-quality, extra fresh and perfectly ripe fruits are what you're aiming for. For winning combinations, in winter think of pineapple/clementine/kiwi and in summer try apricot/strawberry/plum. Contrasting colors are also a great way to improve your fruit salad; why not try orange/kiwi or plum/apple for an impressive color palette?
