1. Prepare the cantaloupe by cutting it in half and scooping out the seeds. Remove the rind, then dice the cantaloupe into bite-sized pieces and transfer them to a large mixing bowl.
2. Rinse the blueberries under cool running water and pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel. Add them to the bowl with the cantaloupe.
3. In a small bowl, whisk together the honey, freshly squeezed lemon juice, and a pinch of salt until the honey is fully dissolved.
4. Drizzle the honey-lemon dressing over the cantaloupe and blueberries. Gently toss the fruit in the dressing until evenly coated.
5. Sprinkle the chopped fresh mint leaves over the fruit and give it one final gentle toss to combine.
6. Serve immediately, or chill in the refrigerator for 15-20 minutes before serving for a refreshing and cool option.
7. Garnish with additional mint leaves if desired. Enjoy!
