Can I make Sweet Strawberry Salsa ahead of time?

Yes, you can chop the fruit and combine with lime juice a few hours before serving. Store covered in the fridge. For optimal texture, try to serve it as close to prep time as possible so the fruit stays firm and juicy.

Do I need to add sugar or sweetener?

Nope! If your berries are ripe and the kiwi is sweet, there’s no need. If you prefer a sweeter salsa, a teaspoon of honey or agave syrup won’t hurt, but usually the fruit is sweet enough on its own.

What chips go best with this salsa?

Homemade cinnamon sugar tortilla chips are classic—with their warm spice and crisp bite, they balance the fresh salsa perfectly. Pita chips or even graham crackers also work well.

Can I use frozen fruit?

Using frozen fruit isn’t ideal here, as it tends to get mushy and release a lot of liquid when thawed. Fresh fruit gives you the best texture and flavor.
