Sometimes, you need a cold dip that cuts through the heavier, heartier dips on your table. Salsa is definitely considered a dip and, while we have plenty of delicious fresh salsa options in our stores, this fruity recipe invites you to make your own!

Either way, it’s a refreshing palate cleanser for Game Day.
