# Helpful Tips:

01 -
  • The colors turn any table into a party, and the flavors always surprise guests with how fresh they taste.
  • It’s one of those quick wins: no cooking, barely any prep, and everyone goes back for seconds.
02 -
  • Bananas can turn brown before your eyes if you forget the citrus—ask me how I know.
  • Sometimes I tossed the fruit too hard and ended up with berry juice everywhere; gentle hands make for the prettiest salad.
03 -
  • Taste your berries before tossing—too tart, and you can add an extra drizzle of honey.
  • Chilling the serving bowls keeps everything cool longer at outdoor parties.
