Instructions
Following these simple steps will help you create your Amazing Easy Homemade Tropical Fruit Cups without any hassle:
1. Prep the Pineapple: Cut the top off the pineapple and slice down the sides to remove the skin. Core the pineapple and chop it into bite-sized pieces.
2. Prepare the Mangoes: Peel the mangoes, removing the pit, and slice them into cubes.
3. Slice the Kiwis: Peel the kiwi and slice it into rounds, then cut those rounds into quarters.
4. Wash the Berries: Rinse strawberries and blueberries under cold water. Hull the strawberries and cut them into halves or quarters, depending on size.
5. Combine Fruits: In a large mixing bowl, gently combine the pineapple, mango, kiwi, strawberries, and blueberries.
6. Juice the Lime: Squeeze the juice of the lime over the mixed fruits. This adds flavor and helps prevent browning.
7. Mix Gently: Toss the fruits together gently to ensure the flavors meld without bruising them.
8. Chill (Optional): Cover the bowl and refrigerate the fruit mixture for about 30 minutes to allow the flavors to blend.
9. Prepare Serving Cups: While the fruit chills, prepare your serving cups or bowls. You can use small mason jars, clear plastic cups, or even hollowed-out pineapple halves for a fun twist.
10. Serve: Once chilled, spoon the mixed fruit into the prepared cups, adding a sprig of mint on top for decoration.
