A sweet, creamy blend of fruits and marshmallows that brightens any holiday or potluck spread.

# Ingredients You'll Need:

→ Fruit and Base

01 - 1 cup full-fat sour cream
02 - 1 cup canned pineapple chunks, drained and roughly chopped
03 - 1 cup canned mandarin oranges, drained
04 - 1 cup maraschino cherries, stems removed and drained
05 - 1 cup mini marshmallows

# Steps to Follow:

01 - Whisk the sour cream until smooth to eliminate lumps and create a creamy foundation.
02 - Thoroughly drain the pineapple, mandarin oranges, and cherries. Pat with paper towels to remove excess moisture.
03 - Roughly chop the pineapple chunks into smaller pieces for even distribution.
04 - In a large mixing bowl, gently fold the drained fruits and mini marshmallows into the sour cream using a rubber spatula.
05 - Cover and refrigerate the mixture for at least 2 hours to allow flavors to meld and marshmallows to soften.
06 - Serve chilled to maintain texture and consistency.

# Extra Tips:

01 - Let the salad chill for 2 hours before serving for optimal flavor and texture.
02 - Substitute plain Greek yogurt for a lighter version; add a splash of vanilla extract for extra flavor depth.
03 - Fold ingredients gently to avoid breaking down the fruit and making the mixture watery.
04 - Add shredded coconut, chopped nuts, or pomegranate seeds for creative variations.
