Red, White, & Blue Fruit Salad

Dragon fruit is seasonal, but when it's available, you should grab a few! Despite their intimidating appearance, they're easy to work with. Just slice one in half, lengthwise, and use a big spoon to scoop out the fruit. Then, simply cut it into chunks. They absorb just about any flavor, so the syrup and citrus fruit will be reinforced with each delightful bite. Serve it in the hollowed-out skin for a beautiful presentation. Garnish with a sprig of mint.
