I first had this salad on a trip to the Caribbean. I was immediately hooked on the combination of sweet and tart fruits, and the creamy coconut milk. I've been making it ever since, and it's always a hit with my family and friends. I've experimented with different fruits over the years, and I've found that mango, pineapple, papaya, and kiwi are the perfect combination. The red onion adds a bit of crunch and spice, and the mint adds a refreshing note. I've also found that using fresh coconut milk makes a big difference in the flavor of the salad. It's creamier and richer than canned coconut milk, and it really gives the salad a tropical flair.
