Fabulous Fruit Salad

OK, it's the 15th of February and everyone is craving good fresh fruit.  Well, maybe not everyone, but those of us who LOVE fresh fruit sure are.  I love going to the store this time of year and seeing beautiful fruit...cherries, raspberries, oranges, etc.  Then you take them home and they taste just "eh"??  This is a fruit salad that I think you can do year round and have a tasty salad.

1 medium cantaloupe, peeled, seeded and cubed
2 large navel oranges, peeled and sectioned
2 C. cubed fresh pineapples
2 medium kiwi fruit, peeled and sliced
1 C. green grapes
1 C. red grapes
3/4 C. peach or apricot nectar
1/4 C. honey
2 tbsp. lemon juice
2 tbsp.balsamic vinegar

In a large bowl, combine the first 6 ingredients.  In a small bowl, whisk the peach nectar, honey, lemon juice, and vinegar; drizzle over fruit and toss to coat.  Chill until serving.
