Main Ingredients
  • 1 cup diced watermelon Use ripe and fresh for best flavor.
  • 1 cup diced pineapple Choose a fresh pineapple for sweetness.
  • 1 cup fresh strawberries, quartered Be delicate when handling.
  • 1 cup blueberries Wash thoroughly before use.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Gather your ingredients: On a cutting board, assemble all your fruits.
  2. Wash all your fruits thoroughly. For the watermelon and pineapple, cut them into bite-sized cubes.
  3. Quarter the strawberries and halve the grapes to ensure every fruit can be enjoyed in a single spoonful.
  4. In a large mixing bowl, combine all the prepared fruits. Gently toss them together to prevent bruising the delicate berries.
  5. If you like your fruit cups sweeter, drizzle a little honey or sprinkle sugar over the mixture. Toss gently until evenly coated.
  6. Spoon the fruit mixture into individual cups or small bowls. If you’re feeling fancy, garnish with fresh mint leaves!
  7. Refrigerate the fruit cups for at least 30 minutes before serving to allow flavors to meld.

Notes

Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator and enjoy within 2-3 days for the best taste. Avoid adding mint until ready to serve.
