Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Strawberries
- 1 cup Blueberries
- 2 cups Pineapple
- 3 Kiwi
- 1 cup Red grapes
- 1 Lemon
- 2 tablespoons Honey
- 2 tablespoons Fresh mint leaves
Instructions
Rinse all fruits thoroughly under running water and pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel.
Hull and slice the strawberries into quarters.
Peel and chop the pineapple into bite-sized chunks if not using pre-cut options.
Peel the kiwis and slice them into thin rounds, then cut the rounds in half.
Ensure the blueberries and red grapes are free from stems and bruises.
Combine the strawberries, blueberries, pineapple, kiwi, and red grapes in a large mixing bowl.
Zest the lemon using a microplane or fine grater, ensuring you only remove the yellow layer of the skin (not the bitter white pith). Set the zest aside.
Juice the lemon into a small bowl, ensuring no seeds are included.
Whisk together the lemon juice, honey, and lemon zest until well combined.
Pour the lemon-honey dressing over the fruit mixture and gently toss to coat all the fruits evenly.
Chop the fresh mint leaves finely and sprinkle them over the fruit salad.
Give the salad a final gentle toss and transfer it to a serving bowl or individual dishes.
Serve immediately or chill in the refrigerator for up to 2 hours before serving for a refreshing treat.
