Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup of sliced strawberries
  • 1 cup of blueberries
  • 1 cup of raspberries
  • 1 cup of green grapes, halved
  • 1 cup of blackberries
  • 2 cups of cantaloupe, cubed
  • 2 cups of honeydew melon, cubed
  • 2 kiwis, peeled and sliced
  • 1 large mango, diced
  • 1 cup of cucumber, diced
  • 1/4 cup of fresh mint leaves, chopped
  • 1 lime
  • 2 tablespoons of fresh lime juice
  • 1-2 tablespoons of honey
  • 1 tablespoon of fresh mint leaves, finely chopped
  • 1 teaspoon of lime zest
  • Pinch of salt

Instructions

  • Gently wash all berries, grapes, kiwi, mango, and cucumber. Hull the strawberries, then thinly slice or halve them. Ensure blueberries, raspberries, and blackberries are thoroughly dry. Halve the grapes lengthwise. Cut cantaloupe and honeydew into bite-sized cubes, discarding seeds and rind. Peel the kiwi and slice into rounds or half-moons. Peel and dice the mango into luscious, tender cubes, aiming for pieces roughly the same size as your melon cubes. Peel the cucumber (or leave skin on), deseed if necessary, and dice into small pieces. As you prepare each fruit, place it into a very large mixing bowl.
  • In a small bowl, whisk together 2 tablespoons of freshly squeezed lime juice. Add 1 to 2 tablespoons of honey, depending on your preferred sweetness. Finely chop about 1 tablespoon of fresh mint leaves and add to the bowl. Stir in 1 teaspoon of lime zest and a tiny pinch of salt. Whisk everything vigorously until well combined and the honey is fully dissolved. The dressing should be light, vibrant, slightly syrupy, and intensely fragrant.
  • Pour the prepared lime-mint dressing evenly over the fruit in the large mixing bowl. With either clean hands or two large, soft spatulas, gently toss the fruit salad. Continue tossing until every vibrant component glistens with the fragrant lime and mint. Serve immediately for the freshest taste and most vibrant colors!
