This Delicious Summer Fruit Salad is perfect for any occasion

including a backyard barbecue. There will be no leftovers. This fruit salad is my favorite because of its delicious sauce. The longer it sits in the juices, the better this salad will taste. I prefer to let it sit in the fridge for at least 3-4 hours before serving. Enjoy.
