Fruit Salad with Pineapple and Coconut

About 3-4 cups diced seedless watermelon
About 2 dozen green grapes, sliced in half lengthwise
1 ripe fresh pineapple, peeled, cored and cut into 1/2-inch dice
About 1 rounded Tbsp grated coconut
About 2 Tbsp orange liquor
Juice and zest of 1/2 lime

Mix all ingredients except the coconut together in a bowl. Allow to macerate about 30 minutes. Turn salad into a serving bowl and top with the coconut flakes.

Cook's Note: A Tbsp of julienned fresh basil is awesome with this salad - I love pairing watermelon with fresh basil. Can't wait for summer herbs!
