How to Make Ambrosia
- Drain canned fruits very well, pressing gently to remove excess liquid.
- In a large bowl, combine the drained fruit, shredded coconut, miniature marshmallows, and chopped pecans.
- Gently fold in the sweetened condensed milk and vanilla extract until evenly distributed.
- Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight (24 hours) to allow flavors to meld and the salad to chill thoroughly. This will also help prevent the fruit from becoming mushy.
- Before serving, give the ambrosia a gentle stir and garnish with extra pecans or a sprinkle of coconut flakes if desired.
