Answer 2

Your pineapple in a salsa is going to add some sweetness, a lot of acidity, and crisp chunks that will be important to the texture.

While other tropical fruits would be have the sweetness and interesting flavor, I can't think of anything that adds the acidity and texture. When ripe, mango and guava are quite soft and although there are delicious mango salsas it won't be similar to the pineapple at all.

You also need a fruit that will not be too distinctive of a flavor because that might distract from the strawberry or clash with the mint.

I think that I would use meyer lemons.
The meyers would be sweet enough not to bash you in the face but they still have some of the tartness. The texture pops kind of like a pineapple and the flavor compliments both strawberry and mint.

Answer 3
