Ingredients:

  • 2 cups fresh strawberries, hulled and quartered
  • 2 cups cantaloupe or honeydew, 1-inch cubes
  • 2 large kiwis, peeled and sliced into half-moons
  • 1 crisp Honeycrisp apple, diced
  • 1 cup grapes, halved
  • 1 large lime, juiced and zested
  • 2 tbsp fresh orange juice, unsweetened
  • 1 tbsp fresh mint leaves, finely chiffonaded
  • 0.5 tsp grated fresh ginger

Instructions:

  1. Begin by dicing the denser fruits like the melon and apple into uniform 1-inch cubes. Place these into a large non-reactive mixing bowl.
  2. In a small separate bowl, combine the lime juice, lime zest, orange juice, and grated ginger. Whisk vigorously until the ginger is well-distributed.
  3. Add the strawberries, grapes, and kiwis to the large bowl. Pour the citrus dressing over the fruit.
  4. Utilizing a gentle folding technique, toss the fruit until evenly coated in the dressing and herb infusion, taking care not to crush the delicate berries.
  5. Garnish with fresh mint chiffonade and serve immediately, or chill for up to 30 minutes to allow flavors to meld.
