Summer has arrived and the sun is out to get you. This season is often followed by the chatting about summer vacation plans, such as drinking by the beach, having a picnic down by the river, etc. However, on the other hand, it is getting hotter and all those sweatings make you crave for pleasant cool weather. As the temperature spikes, you will have this relentless feeling of your energy being dissipated. This feeling is running high and simply iced water barely helps you simmer down.

While you are probably spending hours flicking through a wide range of recipes to handle the heat, Plated would save you some time by presenting our top five mixed fruit salads. It would be a mistake not to mention fruit salads for the collection of summertime combos. Just thinking about all kinds of chopped fruit mixed with condensed milk, yogurt, jelly, ice-cream,… have already quenched your thirst. Your dehydrated taste buds can thank you later.
