Time 15m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 cups plain Greek yogurt
1/4 cup sweetened condensed milk
Zest of 1/2 lime plus juice of 1 lime
Zest and juice of 2 large limes
1 cup sugar
1 mango, peeled and cut into cubes
1 papaya, peeled, seeded and cut into cubes
1 small bunch green grapes, cut in half
1 small jar maraschino cherries, drained and cut in half
1/2 pineapple, peeled and cut into chunks
1/2 honeydew melon, peeled, seeded and cut into chunks

Steps:

  • For the sweet lime yogurt: Mix together the yogurt, sweetened condensed milk and lime zest and juice in a medium bowl. Cover and refrigerate until ready to serve.
  • For the fruit cocktail: Add the lime zest and juice to a pitcher with the sugar and 1 cup water. Stir until the sugar dissolves--you'll know this has happened when the liquid turns from cloudy to clear.
  • Add the mango, papaya, grapes, maraschino cherries, pineapple and melon to a large bowl. Gently mix the fruit with some of the lime syrup, adding more until it is as sweet as you would like it. (The lime syrup will keep for 1 month refrigerated.)
  • Serve with the sweet lime yogurt.

I love the combination of sweet and tart in this recipe. The yogurt dressing is a great way to balance out the flavors.

I followed the recipe exactly and it turned out great! The yogurt dressing was a bit too tart for my taste, so I added a little bit of honey to balance it out.

This Mexican Fruit Cocktail with Sweet Lime Yogurt was a hit at my party! The combination of sweet, tart, and tangy flavors was simply irresistible. I especially loved the creamy texture of the yogurt, which balanced out the acidity of the fruit.
