Your Fourth Of July Fruit Salad Needs This Serious Upgrade

As the Fourth of July rolls around, so do the summer potlucks, where fruit salad is an essential item. Enhance this holiday fruit salad by adding a simple dressing.
Regardless of the produce used, create a dressing out of lime juice, honey, and grated ginger. The combination of these ingredients adds a hint of sweetness and sourness.
To make the dressing, whisk together lime juice, honey, and grated ginger, or shake them in a Mason jar for thorough mixing, then pour over the salad and stir to coat evenly.
Start with ⅓ or ½ cup of lime juice, a spoonful of honey, and some grated ginger; adjusting as needed. You can also swap out ingredients, like lemon instead of lime juice.
This zesty dressing uses lime juice to enhance the natural flavors of the fruit and prevent browning, honey to bind the ingredients and add sweetness, and ginger to add spice.
