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: Whisk together the agave syrup, freshly squeezed lime juice, lime zest, and finely chopped fresh mint in a small bowl until well combined to create a tangy and sweet dressing.
- Prepare the fruit: Cube the watermelon into 1-inch pieces, slice the strawberries into rounds, pit and halve the cherries, and gather the raspberries. Place all the prepared fruit in a large mixing bowl.
- Toss the salad: Drizzle the lime mint dressing over the mixed fruit and lightly toss with a spoon or salad tongs to evenly coat the fruit without bruising it.
- Garnish and serve: Garnish the salad with some torn fresh mint leaves to enhance the aroma and taste. Serve immediately for the freshest flavor.
Notes
- Use fresh, ripe watermelon and berries for the best flavor and texture.
- This salad is best served chilled; refrigerate for 20 minutes before serving if desired.
- For added texture, consider sprinkling chopped nuts like pistachios or almonds.
- Agave syrup can be substituted with honey or maple syrup if preferred.
- To keep the salad fresh longer, add the dressing just before serving to prevent the fruit from becoming soggy.
