The traditional Saracen drink.

It basically resembles Sangria, only with a lot more chunks of fruit. This isn't an exact recipe, but if you put some Sangria into a large rectangular cooler, and then empty a couple fruit salads into it, you kind of get the idea of what Saracen Salad is like.

Legend

So the story goes, the Saracens were formed by breaking away from the Corsairs. The captain of the Corsairs at the time, who gave cause for this split, was someone supposedly known as Captain Bob. Incensed over some insult or abuse (no one seems to remember what exactly), the Saracens murdered Captain Bob, then hacked up his body into small chunks and threw the chunks into a barrel filled with an alcoholic beverage. And thus Saracen Salad was born. It is still customary to refer to Captain Bob when drinking Saracen Salad.
