- 1 cup raspberries
- 1 cup blackberries
- 2 tablespoons mint leaves
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon orange zest
Instructions
Wash all the berries thoroughly under cold running water to remove dirt and debris. Pat them dry using a clean kitchen towel or paper towels.

In a large bowl, combine the strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, and blackberries.
Drizzle the honey citrus mixture over the berries and gently toss to combine, making sure the berries are evenly coated but not crushed.
Sprinkle the chopped mint leaves over the salad and lightly toss again.
Let the salad sit for 5 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together before serving.
