Fantastic recipe for a picnic or summer BBQ. Refreshing! such an easy and simple fruit salad. I used non-dairy vanilla yogurt due to lactose intolerance and it was even incredible and creamy lactose free! I will be making this all summer long. 

Kids love how tropical and fresh this recipe is. Sometimes, it's hard to find the pina colada flavor in low-fat, so I will use a low-fat vanilla flavor.
