Ingredients
Fruit
- 4 cups mixed fresh berries (strawberries, blueberries, raspberries)
- 2 ripe peaches (pitted and diced)
- 1 ripe mango (pitted and diced)
Dressing
- 1/2 cup orange juice
- 2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon fresh lemon zest
- 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
Garnish
- Fresh mint leaves
Instructions
- Combine fruit: In a large bowl, combine the mixed fresh berries, diced peaches, and diced mango gently to avoid bruising the fruit.
- Whisk dressing: In a separate bowl, whisk together the orange juice, honey or maple syrup, fresh lemon zest, and fresh lemon juice until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
- Toss fruit: Pour the citrusy liquid mixture over the bowl of fruit and gently toss until all the fruit pieces are evenly coated with the dressing.
- Chill: Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or a lid and place it in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour to allow the flavors to meld together and ensure the soup is well chilled.
- Serve: Spoon the chilled fruit soup into serving bowls and garnish each portion with fresh mint leaves for a burst of color and added freshness.
Notes
- The soup can be made a few hours ahead and stored in the refrigerator to deepen the flavors.
- Use honey or maple syrup depending on your preference or dietary needs.
- Fresh mint adds a refreshing aroma; alternatively, basil or cilantro can be used for a different flavor twist.
- For a vegan version, use maple syrup instead of honey.
- This fruit soup is best served chilled and consumed on the day of preparation for optimal freshness.
