Print Recipe

A colorful and fresh fruit kabob recipe perfect for Pride Month celebrations and summer gatherings, featuring a rainbow of juicy fruits on skewers with an optional honey-lime glaze.

Ingredients

  • Strawberries, hulled and halved
  • Clementine segments or peeled orange slices (seedless)
  • Pineapple chunks, fresh and ripe
  • Kiwi slices, peeled and thickly sliced
  • Blueberries, washed and dried
  • Red grapes, halved (seedless)
  • Optional glaze: 2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
  • Optional glaze: 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup
  • Wooden or bamboo skewers, soaked in water for 20 minutes if grilling

Instructions

  1. Wash all fruits thoroughly. Hull and halve strawberries, peel and segment clementines or oranges, peel and slice kiwis into thick rounds, halve grapes, and cut pineapple into bite-sized chunks. Pat berries dry to prevent kabobs from becoming soggy.
  2. If you plan to grill or want to avoid any risk of burning, soak wooden skewers in water for at least 20 minutes beforehand. This step isn’t mandatory for fresh fruit kabobs served raw.
  3. In a small bowl, whisk together 2 tablespoons fresh lime juice with 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup to make the optional glaze.
  4. Thread the fruits onto skewers in rainbow order: strawberry, clementine, pineapple, kiwi, blueberry, and grape. Repeat until the skewer is full, leaving about an inch at the handle for easy gripping. Keep spacing snug but not overcrowded.
  5. Brush the glaze lightly over each kabob or drizzle on top. Arrange kabobs on a serving platter, cover with plastic wrap, and chill in the fridge until ready to serve.

Notes

Soak wooden skewers if grilling to prevent burning. Use fresh, firm fruit and dry berries well to avoid soggy kabobs. Prepare up to 24 hours ahead but best within a few hours for freshness. Optional glaze adds a subtle tartness and shine. Variations include swapping fruits seasonally or adding chili powder or mint leaves for flavor twists.
