- Mix the Base:
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the sweetened condensed milk, sour cream, and lemon juice. Stir until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
- Add the Fruits:
- Gently fold in the drained crushed pineapple, chopped mandarin oranges, halved maraschino cherries, and sliced bananas into the milk mixture. If using, also add the chopped mixed nuts.
- Include Marshmallows:

- Remove the fruit salad from the freezer about 15-20 minutes before serving to slightly soften for easier scooping.
- Serve in individual bowls, topped with a dollop of whipped cream or a spoonful of sour cream if desired.
