This was a huge success! Lovely, refreshing, light dessert for a mexican meal. I put a scoop of mango sorbet with it. Will definitely go into summer dessert rotation.

I needed a quick recipe for a game nite group. The recipe was very simple to make but I substituted sliced fresh strawberries and doubled the amount of kiwi that I had on hand. What little pineapple I had, I topped it off. I tried ginger spice instead of ginger root and it still turned out great!!
