Ingredients
  

Ingredients
  • 2 cups strawberries, hulled and quartered
  • 1 cup blueberries
  • 1 cup raspberries
  • 2 kiwi fruits, peeled and sliced
  • 1 cup pineapple chunks
  • 1 mango, peeled and diced
  • 2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
  • 3 tablespoons honey
  • 1 teaspoon lime zest
  • Fresh mint leaves for garnish (optional)

Method
 

Instructions
  1. Wash all fruits thoroughly. Hull and quarter the strawberries, peel and slice the kiwi, dice the mango, and prepare the pineapple chunks. Place all prepared fruits in a large mixing bowl.
  2. In a small bowl, whisk together the fresh lime juice, honey, and lime zest until well combined. The honey should dissolve completely into the lime juice, creating a smooth, pourable dressing.
  3. Pour the honey lime dressing over the prepared fruits. Gently toss everything together using a large spoon or spatula, ensuring all pieces are evenly coated with the dressing. Be careful not to crush the more delicate fruits like raspberries.
  4. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together. Garnish with fresh mint leaves before serving if desired.

Notes

Use seasonal fruits for best flavor, adjust honey based on fruit sweetness, prepare fruits and dressing separately then combine before serving to maintain texture, add toasted coconut or nuts for crunch, best enjoyed within 24 hours
