Summertime Margarita Fruit Salad image

This salad is fresh and delicious! And really does taste like a margarita! You can use pretty much any fruit combo you'd like. I used strawberries, grapes, and oranges because that's what looked the freshest at the market but any type of melons, mango, and/or pineapple would be great too! Rim your bowls with lime and coconut...
