Peel and dice the kiwis and golden kiwis into bite-sized chunks.
Core and chop the green apple into similar-sized pieces. Optionally, keep the skin on for added crunch. Toss the pieces in a little lemon juice to prevent browning.
Peel, core, and chop the pineapple into small bites.
Peel and segment the mandarins, removing any excess white pith.
Wash and hull the strawberries, then slice them into halves or quarters, depending on their size.
Cut the passionfruit in half and scoop out the pulp and seeds with a spoon.
In a small bowl, whisk together the lemon juice and honey to create the dressing.
Combine all the prepared fruits in a large serving bowl.
Drizzle the lemon-honey dressing over the fruits and gently toss to coat all pieces evenly.
Garnish the fruit salad with fresh mint leaves for a burst of color and added aroma.
Serve immediately or chill in the refrigerator for up to 1 hour before serving for an extra refreshing treat.
