Ingredients:

2 quarts whole milk plain or vanilla yogurt
2 1/2 cups frozen juice concentrate (raspberry, orange, pineapple, other), thawed 
2 1/2 gallons fresh, frozen, or canned (and drained fruit) ex: apples, cherries, strawberries, bananas, melon, peaches, kiwi, blueberries, pineapple, in bite-sized pieces* 
1 cup shredded coconut (optional, for garnish)    
2 Tbsp. honey or maple syrup (leave out if using vanilla yogurt, which is already sweet)

Directions:
1. In a small bowl, mix yogurt and fruit juice concentrate (honey/maple syrup, if using) until thoroughly combined.

*If you are preparing the dip to serve later, wait to slice apples and/or bananas until just before serving, since they will brown when exposed to air. Alternatively, sprinkle with lemon juice to keep from browning.
