Ambrosia image

This is a classic Southern dessert in which layers of oranges, bananas and coconut are drizzled with honey, lemon juice and Cointreau. The perfect sweet to serve in the dreary midwinter months when your palate is craving something bright and juicy, but the berries haven't arrived yet.
