Print Recipe

A quick and easy summer snack combining sweet tropical fruits with spicy, tangy chamoy and Tajín seasoning for a refreshing and flavorful treat.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 ripe mango, diced (about 1/2-inch pieces)
  • 1 cup fresh pineapple chunks (bite-sized)
  • 1 cup jicama, peeled and diced
  • 1 cup seedless watermelon, cubed
  • 2–3 tablespoons chamoy sauce
  • 1–2 teaspoons Tajín seasoning
  • 1–2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
  • 1 tablespoon fresh mint leaves, chopped (optional)
  • Optional: roasted pepitas or chopped toasted coconut for crunch

Instructions

  1. Wash all fruits thoroughly. Peel the mango, pineapple, and jicama, then dice them into about 1/2-inch pieces. Cube the watermelon similarly.
  2. Place all diced fruit in a mixing bowl and gently toss to combine evenly.
  3. Squeeze 1-2 tablespoons of fresh lime juice over the fruit to add brightness and preserve freshness.
  4. Drizzle 2-3 tablespoons of chamoy sauce over the fruit and stir gently to coat without drowning the fruit.
  5. Sprinkle 1-2 teaspoons of Tajín seasoning generously on top to add a chili-lime kick.
  6. Add 1 tablespoon of finely chopped fresh mint leaves if desired for a refreshing herbal note.
  7. Serve immediately for best texture and flavor, or chill in the fridge for up to 10 minutes before serving.
  8. If prepping in advance, mix lime juice with fruit early, but add chamoy and Tajín right before serving to prevent sogginess.

Notes

Use ripe but firm fruit to avoid mushiness. Add chamoy and Tajín seasoning just before serving if prepping ahead to keep fruit crisp. Adjust Tajín amount to control spiciness. Optional toppings like roasted pepitas or toasted coconut add texture.
