Summer Fruit Salad with Mint Dressing

Name: Summer Fruit Salad with Mint Dressing
Prep time: 25 min
Cook time: 5 min
Total time: 210 min
Yield: 10 servings
Ingredients: ⅔ cup fresh orange juice; ⅓ cup fresh lemon juice; ⅓ cup packed brown sugar; ½ teaspoon grated orange zest; ½ teaspoon grated lemon zest; 1 teaspoon vanilla extract; 2 cups cubed fresh pineapple; 2 cups strawberries, hulled and sliced; 3 kiwi fruit, peeled and sliced; 3 bananas, sliced; 2 oranges, peeled and sectioned; 1 cup seedless grapes; 2 cups blueberries

This fruit salad is perfect for a backyard bbq or any occasion. There are never leftovers! This is one of my favorite fruit salad recipes, as I think the citrusy sauce really makes it. This salad is tastier the longer you can let it soak in its juices. I prefer 3 to 4 hours in the refrigerator before I serve it.
