For 4 servings
Prepare the Fruit (10 minutes). Begin by washing all fruits under cool running water. Pat them dry gently.
Make the Honey-Lime Dressing (2 minutes). In a small bowl, whisk together the fresh lime juice and honey until the honey is fully dissolved and the dressing is smooth. For an extra burst of citrus flavor, you can add the zest of half a lime.
Combine the Salad (1 minute). Pour the honey-lime dressing over the fruit in the large bowl. Using a large spoon or rubber spatula, gently fold the fruit and dressing together until all the pieces are lightly coated. Be careful not to mash the softer fruits.
Chill and Serve (15 minutes). For the best flavor, cover the bowl and chill the fruit salad in the refrigerator for at least 15 minutes. This allows the flavors to meld together. Just before serving, garnish with freshly chopped mint.
