Tipsy tequila fruit salad
Ingredients: Watermelon chunks - 3 cups, pineapple chunks - 3 cups, sliced strawberries - 2 cups, tequila - 1/4 cup, honey - 1/4 cup, zested and juiced limes - 3

The flavour profiles on this salad can be varied with a hit of salt or even some chopped up herbs. Basil, mint and even a hint of dill (if you're using salt) work great. Feeling bougie? toss you fruit pieces on the grill for a nice little smoky char before tossing it up with the tequila, lime, honey and herbs for a nice subtle smoky affair.
And if you're looking for a pro-tip that does away with weekday obligations of sobriety, down a shot of your favourite tequila with some salt and lime before digging into your bowl of boozy goodness! There's literally no way you can get your happy high wrong.
