Oh Sunday....why must you end so quickly? Time to start the work week again...bummer. BUT...to get you excited for Spring, why not combine a latin cocktail with some vibrantly colored fruits? For your Sunday Night Nosh, try this Mojito Fruit Salad! Yes, it contains liquor. If you think the kiddos may eat it, just omit that part.....unless you are wanting them to go to bed early! ;)
Mojito Fruit Salad
2 ripe mangos, peeled and chunked
4 kiwis, peeled and chunked
1 package fresh strawberries, quartered
4 sprigs of mint, (remove leaves and discard the stems)
juice from 3 small limes
1/2 cup zero-calorie lime-flavored soda
1 ounce of light rum
agave nectar
Combine fruits in a bowl. Tear mint leaves between your fingers and add to the fruit. (This mimics the "crushing" of the mint that is done when making a mojito.) Add the juice, soda, and rum. Toss and then taste. If you desire a sweeter, less tart taste, add a drizzle of agave nectar and toss again.
For a 1 cup serving...
