This is a wonderful fruit salad. I did a few modifications--vanilla nonfat yogurt (no honey, didn't have honeydew or cantaloup, added banana instead. You could use any fruit, but I'd always have apple, watermelon and pineapple as a base. I don't like toasted coconut so I added the cream from Goya coconut milk, which is somewhat grainy. It made just enough coconut flavor without the texture of grated coconut. The rum is a MUST.

A great and easy recipe for a fine fruit salad. I've used this recipe for catering events a number of times and have had nothing but positive results. I've modified it by adding different fruits, depending upon what is in season; you can try: kiwi, grapefruit, and other varieties of apples; as well as pears. I've NOT made it using watermelon, so can't vouch for that.

If you are not a rum fan you can always substitute the rum with a flavored extract of your choice. I just used a little vanilla but orange or lemon would also work as well as other liqueurs like raspberry orange or mellon. This recipe is very versatile and delicious.

And always a great topping for fruit. I'd taste before adding all that rum.

I attempted to make this fruit salad for a recent Mother's Club meeting I hosted at my home. After mixing the yogurt with the honey and spiced rum I tasted it and decided to try something different. The concept seemed great, but the recipe called for WAY too much spiced rum. It was very overpowering. I may try the recipe again with only a couple tablespoons of rum.
