Citrus Fruit Salad

It’s bright and colorful and incredibly tasty. I love that fruit salad is so versatile. You can serve it alongside brunch, present it as dessert, or eat it solely for breakfast. Of course, there are a million different combinations of fruit that you can put together but my favorite flavors are: kiwi, raspberries, clementines, and grapefruit – especially in the winter. It’s a fairly tart tasting fruit salad which is why I decided to add in a splash of orange juice and grenadine. It sweetens it up just enough. I served this fruit salad as part of a delicious brunch for my Mom’s birthday a few weeks ago and there were zero leftovers. The best part, it took about 10 minutes to make and it looks so cheerful on the table!

Enjoy!

Ingredients

  • 2 pints fresh raspberries
  • 3 kiwis, ripe (not firm but not mushy either – there should be a slight give when you press on the fruit)
  • 3 grapefruits
  • 4 clementines
  • 3 tbsp. orange juice
  • 1 tbsp. grenadine

Method of Preparation 

  1. Begin by slicing the grapefruit and removing the pith. Cut into sections. Place sections into the bowl and also add the grapefruit juice.
  2. Next, peel and section the clementines and add to the bowl.
  3. Peel and cube the kiwi. Add to the bowl.
  4. Lastly, add in the fresh raspberries.
  5. Pour the orange juice and grenadine on top and gently mix together being careful not to cause the raspberries to burst.
  6. Chill if not immediately serving. But, serve within 3-4 hours of making.
