Ingredients

2 can(s) 20 oz each crushed pineapple
2 can(s) 15 oz each mandarin oranges
1 c maraschino cherries - cut in halves can add more if you like
12 oz cool whip - thawed (1 container)
8 oz sour cream (1 container)
1 box instant vanilla pudding (3 1/2 ounces)
8 oz sweet coconut flakes ( 1 bag - i use bakers)
2 1/2 c marshmallows, mini

Steps:

1. Strain your pineapple and orange segments to get rid of extra juice. (I sometimes press on top of friut lightly to help this). You want your fruit as drained as possible, runny ambrosia is yucky :) add the cherries.

3. Next fold in the cool whip and the sour cream. Then sprinkle the vanilla pudding and and give it another mix. Add the coconut, you can use more or less depending on how much you like coconut. Then mix it all together.
4. Now I refrigerate overnight and then about 4 or 5 hours before you are ready to serve (in the morning is good)I add the marshmallows. This keeps them from getting too mushy. You can of course add them at the same time as the coconut. It's just a matter of preference Soon into cocktail glasses for a lovely presentation.
