Ingredients
  

2 ripe peaches, diced into bite-sized pieces

1 cup fresh strawberries, hulled and halved

1 cup fresh blueberries

1 cup fresh raspberries

1 tablespoon honey (or maple syrup for a vegan alternative)

Juice of 1 lemon

1 tablespoon fresh mint leaves, finely chopped (plus extra leaves for garnish)

1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

A pinch of salt to enhance flavors

Optional: 1/4 cup crumbled feta cheese for a savory touch or whipped coconut cream for a non-dairy option

Instructions
 

Prepare the Fruits: Rinse all the berries under cold running water and allow them to drain thoroughly. Meanwhile, dice the peaches into small, manageable pieces and set them aside.

    Mix the Dressing: In a small mixing bowl, combine the honey (or maple syrup) with the freshly squeezed lemon juice, chopped mint leaves, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt. Whisk these ingredients together until the mixture is well blended and the honey is dissolved.

      Combine the Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, gently fold together the diced peaches, halved strawberries, blueberries, and raspberries. Once the fruits are mixed, drizzle the prepared dressing over them, and toss gently to ensure all the fruit pieces are coated without squishing the delicate berries.

        Chill the Salad: Cover the fruit salad with plastic wrap or a lid and place it in the refrigerator for about 15 to 30 minutes. This chilling step allows the flavors to marry beautifully.

          Serve with Flair: After chilling, give the salad a gentle toss before serving. For an added touch, sprinkle crumbled feta over the top for a burst of flavor or add dollops of whipped coconut cream for a luscious non-dairy option. Garnish with a few additional mint leaves for a pop of color.

            Enjoy Creatively: Present your salad in individual serving bowls or a large glass trifle dish for a striking centerpiece. This will not only enhance the presentation but also make it easy for guests to help themselves.
