Tips:

  • Choose ripe and juicy watermelon and pineapple. This will ensure the salsa is flavorful and refreshing.
  • Chop the watermelon and pineapple into small pieces. This will make it easier to eat and will help the salsa to retain its juices.
  • Add some chopped red onion for a bit of spice. If you don't like onions, you can omit them or substitute another vegetable, such as celery or cucumber.
  • Use fresh cilantro for the best flavor. If you don't have fresh cilantro, you can use dried cilantro, but the flavor will be less intense.
  • Add some lime juice to brighten up the flavors. You can also use lemon juice, but lime juice is more traditional.
  • Season the salsa with salt and pepper to taste. You can also add a pinch of cayenne pepper for a bit of heat.
  • Chill the salsa for at least 30 minutes before serving. This will allow the flavors to meld and will make the salsa even more refreshing.

Watermelon pineapple salsa is a delicious and refreshing salsa that is perfect for summer gatherings. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own personal preferences.
