Almost like a trip to the Caribbean, our Tortuga Bay Salsa Mix is designed to take fruit to the next level. It combines the tastes of traditional jerk seasoning with rum and mint flavors.
In the summer when fresh fruits are less expensive, we often go to a fruit mix; virtually any fruit combination works, so use your favorites! The Caribbean heat and flavors are beautifully complimented by cool fruit, surprising but delicious in a fruit salad. Tortuga Bay Mixed Fruit Salad with strawberries, blueberries and honeydew melon is pictured. It’s a wonderful side dish for July 4th cookouts. Here’s the whole recipe.
