Ingredients

• 2 cups Strawberries
• 1 cup Blueberries
• 1.5 cups Pineapple chunks
• 2 whole Kiwi
• 1 cup Orange segments
• 0.25 cup Fresh mint leaves
• 2 tablespoons Lemon juice
• 1 tablespoon Honey
• 2 tablespoons Water
• 1 teaspoon Lemon zest

Directions

Step 1

Rinse and dry the strawberries, blueberries, and orange segments. Hull and slice the strawberries into halves or quarters, depending on their size.

Step 2

Peel the kiwis and slice them into thin rounds. Add the kiwi slices, pineapple chunks, and prepared strawberries to a large serving bowl along with the blueberries and orange segments.

Step 3

In a small saucepan, combine the water, honey, and lemon juice. Heat over low heat, stirring frequently, until the honey is fully dissolved (about 2-3 minutes). Remove from heat.

Step 4

Finely chop the fresh mint leaves and stir them into the honey-lemon mixture along with the lemon zest. Let the sauce cool for 5 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.

Step 5

Drizzle the cooled lemon mint sauce over the fruit in the serving bowl. Gently toss the fruit and sauce together until evenly coated.

Step 6

Serve immediately, garnished with additional mint leaves if desired, or refrigerate until ready to serve.
