What Fruit To Use

There are various fruit you can use to make these Fourth of July Fruit Skewers.

  • Red Fruit – red fruit choices include watermelon, strawberries, raspberries, red grapes, and cherries.
  • White fruit – you can use peeled apples, peeled pears, white peaches, and white melon. You can also use banana but these go a bit mushy so I avoid using them.
  • Blue fruit – you can use blueberries, blackberries, purple grapes.

FAQs

How Do You Keep These Cold During Celebrations

If possible, keep them in a refrigerator for as long as you can. Alternatively, you can keep these on a tray over ice or on in a cool bag.

How Do You Keep Fruit From Turning Brown

To avoid some of your white flesh fruit like apples and bananas turning brown, especially if you are not going to add dressing to them straight away, you should squeeze some lemon or lime juice over them.
