Peach Berry Fruit Salad (Print Version)

Sweet peaches and tangy berries tossed in zesty honey-lemon dressing, finished with fragrant mint for a refreshing treat.

# Ingredients:

01 - 3 ripe peaches, pitted and sliced
02 - 1 cup fresh strawberries, hulled and sliced
03 - 1 cup blueberries
04 - 1 cup blackberries
05 - 1 tablespoon honey
06 - 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
07 - 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
08 - 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon (optional)
09 - 1 tablespoon fresh mint leaves, chopped (for garnish)

# Steps to Follow:

01 - Slice the peaches into thin wedges and hull and slice the strawberries. Place all the berries (blueberries, strawberries, and blackberries) in a large mixing bowl.
02 - Whisk together the honey, lemon juice, vanilla extract, and cinnamon (if using) in a small bowl until smooth.
03 - Drizzle the honey mixture over the prepared fruits and gently toss to evenly coat the fruits with the dressing.
04 - Refrigerate for 10-15 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together and the fruits to release their natural juices.
05 - Sprinkle chopped fresh mint leaves on top as a garnish before serving. Serve the fruit salad chilled.

# Additional Notes:

01 - For a tropical twist, add diced pineapple or mango to the salad.
02 - Maple syrup can be used as a substitute for honey for a different sweetness profile.
03 - Serve with yogurt or vanilla ice cream for a more indulgent dessert.
04 - For a less sweet version, reduce the honey or omit it entirely.
