Notes

This fruit salad is best enjoyed fresh, but if you have leftovers, you can store them in an airtight container in the fridge. It will keep for about 2-3 days, but the fruit may start to become a bit mushy over time. To extend its shelf life, store the dressing separately and add it just before serving.
