About
Jackie Kennedy was a woman of class and grace. She wouldn't be content with just throwing some cut-up fruit together and calling it a fruit salad. So, you shouldn't be either! Jackie Kennedy's Melon Mix takes the fruit salad and makes sure to zhush it up to presidential levels! The melon cubes are soaked in corn syrup to ensure each one is truly sweet before they get mixed with sunny strawberries, electric oranges, and tropical pineapples! Oh, and a touch of cool mint means Jackie Kennedy's Melon Mix is as refreshing as any treat on the table! Let the summer roll off you!
