Chili Lime Tropical Fruit Cups

This Mexican street food-inspired recipe is perfect for your summer shindigs. It's a sweet-tart and zesty appetizer that awakens tastebuds and refreshes palates. We used a combination of our Pineapple Infused White Balsamic and our Coconut Infused White Balsamic to highlight the fresh tropical fruit. The spice mix balances the sweetness with some savory heat.
