🍽 Ingredients

📖 Instructions

  1. First, gather your ingredients! You'll need an array of your favorite fresh fruits – think juicy strawberries, pineapple chunks, kiwi slices, and mango cubes. A few oranges or even some raspberries will add color and a burst of flavor. Don't be afraid to experiment!
  2. Wash and chop everything. Rinse your fruits thoroughly. Then, chop them into bite-sized pieces. I like to keep the sizes roughly uniform so everyone gets a good mix of the fruit on each kabob, but hey, it's your kabob; slice to your heart's content!
  3. Prepare your skewers. Rinse your skewers if they're wooden. Some people soak their wooden skewers beforehand, but it's not strictly necessary.
  4. Now comes the fun part: assembling the kabobs. Thread the fruit onto your skewers, creating a colorful and appealing design. Have some fun with this! One thing I love to do is make sure the fruit is well spaced so that it isn't packed tightly together. It's important to remember to leave a little bit of room on the ends of the skewers so that you don't accidentally prick your fingers.
  5. Give your kabobs a healthy drizzle of coconut water. I love using young Thai coconut water–it has a lovely sweetness that complements almost every fruit. You could also use another type of coconut water or juice, but coconut water is a super hydrating option and this whole dish is made with the summer in mind. This adds not only flavor but also keeps the fruit from browning too quickly!
  6. Enjoy! Serve immediately and watch them disappear! These kabobs are perfect as a refreshing snack, a light dessert, or even a fun addition to a picnic lunch. If there are any leftovers, try to store them in an air-tight container in the fridge to prevent them from drying out too much and losing their flavor.

📝 Notes

  • Adjust fruit quantities according to your preference.
  • For extra flavor, try adding a sprinkle of cinnamon before serving.
