How do I store leftover Frozen Mango and Peach Fruit Salad with Lime and Mint?

Cool fully before storing. Most baked desserts keep at room temperature in an airtight container for 2–3 days, or in the fridge for up to 5 days. Cream- or custard-based desserts must go in the fridge within 2 hours; reheat gently or serve cold per the recipe.

Can I substitute ingredients in Frozen Mango and Peach Fruit Salad with Lime and Mint?
