Ingredients

Scale

Fruits

  • 1 cup Fresh Strawberries, hulled and sliced
  • 1 cup Ripe Mango, diced
  • 1 cup Kiwi, peeled and chopped
  • 1/2 cup Blueberries
  • 1/2 cup Seedless Grapes
  • 1 cup Fresh Orange Segments

Dressing

  • 2 tablespoons Lemon Juice (natural)
  • 1 tablespoon Honey (natural)

Garnish

  • 2 tablespoons Chopped Mint Leaves

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Fruits: Wash all the fruits thoroughly and peel where necessary. Cut the strawberries, mango, kiwi, and oranges into bite-sized pieces to ensure every spoonful has a delightful mix of flavors and textures.
  2. Combine Ingredients in a Bowl: Gently toss the chopped fruits and grapes in a large bowl, making sure not to mash the softer fruits like strawberries and kiwi, maintaining their shape and juiciness.
  3. Make the Dressing: In a small bowl, whisk together fresh lemon juice (natural) and honey (natural) until well combined, then drizzle it evenly over the fruit mixture to enhance the natural flavors and keep the fruits bright.
  4. Add Fresh Mint: Sprinkle finely chopped mint leaves over the salad, folding gently to distribute the refreshing notes throughout without overpowering the fruit.
  5. Chill and Serve: Refrigerate the Fruit Salad for at least 30 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to meld beautifully and the salad to refresh your palate.

Notes

  • Choose fresh, ripe fruits for the best taste and texture.
  • Cut fruits evenly to ensure balanced bites and even flavor distribution.
  • Gently toss to prevent squashing delicate fruits.
  • Add dressing just before serving to maintain freshness and vibrant colors.
  • Use citrus juice like lemon or orange to prevent browning and keep fruits vibrant.
