Ingredients
Fruit
- 4 cups watermelon, cubed into 1 inch pieces
- 1 1/2 cups strawberries, sliced into rounds
- 1 1/2 cups raspberries
- 1 1/2 cups cherries, pitted and halved
Dressing
- 2 tbsp freshly squeezed lime juice
- 1 1/2 tsp lime zest
- 2 tbsp agave syrup
- 1 tbsp fresh mint, finely chopped
Instructions
- Make the Dressing: In a small bowl, whisk together the agave syrup, freshly squeezed lime juice, lime zest, and finely chopped fresh mint until well combined to create a bright and flavorful dressing.
- Prepare the Fruit: Cube the watermelon into 1-inch pieces, slice the strawberries into rounds, rinse the raspberries, and pit and halve the cherries. Place all the prepared fruit into a large mixing bowl.
- Toss the Salad: Drizzle the lime mint dressing over the mixed fruit in the bowl and gently toss everything together to ensure the fruit is evenly coated with the dressing.
- Garnish and Serve: Garnish the salad with some torn fresh mint leaves for an extra burst of flavor and a fresh finish. Serve immediately or chill briefly before serving for a refreshing treat.
Notes
- Use ripe, fresh fruit for the best flavor and texture.
- You can substitute agave syrup with honey or maple syrup if preferred.
- Chill the fruit salad for 15-20 minutes before serving to enhance its refreshing qualities.
- This salad is best consumed fresh as the fruit may release water if left too long.
- For an extra touch, add a sprinkle of chili powder or a pinch of salt to balance the sweetness.
