Method
Fruit
Prepare strawberries
Rinse strawberries under cold water, hull them (remove green tops), and quarter each berry so pieces are roughly bite-sized. Place in a large mixing bowl.
Prepare blueberries
Rinse blueberries and drain well. Add to the bowl with strawberries.
Cube melon and watermelon
Cut cantaloupe/melon and watermelon into approximately 1-inch cubes. Remove seeds and excess rind. Add to the mixing bowl with the berries.
Prepare pineapple
Peel, core, and cut pineapple into 1-inch chunks. If using canned pineapple, drain thoroughly and pat dry. Add pineapple to the fruit bowl.
Dressing & Finish
Make the citrus-honey dressing
In a small bowl or measuring cup, combine the orange juice, lime juice, honey (or agave) and a pinch of salt. Whisk until honey is fully dissolved. Taste and adjust sweetness or acidity as needed.
Toss fruit with dressing
Pour the dressing over the prepared fruit in the large mixing bowl. Gently toss with a large spoon or spatula just until all fruit is lightly coated — avoid over-mixing to keep fruit pieces intact and juices from becoming too watery.
Add mint and chill
Fold in the thinly sliced mint leaves. Cover the bowl and refrigerate the salad for at least 15–30 minutes to let flavors marry. If serving immediately, a brief 5–10 minute rest is sufficient.
