Ingredients
Method
Prepare the fruit
- Pit and slice the peaches, then add them to a large serving bowl with the blueberries, raspberries, strawberries, and watermelon.
Make the honey-lime dressing
- Whisk together the honey, lime juice, lime zest, and vanilla extract until smooth.
Toss and chill
- Drizzle the honey-lime dressing over the fruit and toss gently until every piece looks coated and glistening.
- Taste the fruit salad and adjust with more honey or lime juice as desired for the balance of sweet and bright.
- Cover and refrigerate for 20 minutes so the juices mingle and the dressing clings to the fruit.
Serve
- Garnish with fresh mint leaves just before serving for a fresh, green finish.
Notes
Pro tip: slice peaches right before assembling to keep them juicy and reduce browning. Store covered in the refrigerator for 2 days; the texture softens the longer it sits. Freezing is not recommended for fresh fruit salad. If you want a lighter option, use maple syrup in place of honey for a similar sweet dressing.
