Ingredients
Method
Mix the fruit
- Slice the peaches and place them in a large serving bowl with the blueberries, raspberries, strawberries, and watermelon. Keep the mix level so the fruit tosses evenly.
Make the honey-lime dressing
- Whisk together honey, lime juice, lime zest, and vanilla extract until smooth. Stop when the dressing looks glossy and fully blended.
Toss and chill
- Drizzle the honey-lime dressing over the fruit and gently toss until every piece looks lightly coated. You should see a sheen on the peach slices and berries.
- Taste the salad and add more honey or lime juice as desired. Mix gently again so the added flavor distributes.
- Refrigerate for 20 minutes to let the flavors meld. Cover once chilled so the fruit stays fresh and glossy.
Serve
- Garnish with fresh mint leaves just before serving. Scatter the leaves so they’re visible across the top.
Notes
Pro tip: slice peaches right before assembling so they stay juicy but not watery. Store covered in the refrigerator up to 2 days; the texture softens after that. Freezing is not recommended because berries and watermelon break down. For a lower-sugar option, replace honey with 3 tbsp agave or a comparable liquid sweetener and taste to balance the lime.
