How to Make Summer Fruit Salad
- In a small bowl, whisk together 1/4 cup lime juice, 1/4 cup water, and 1/4 cup granulated sugar until the sugar dissolves completely.
- Add 2 sliced bananas to the lime-sugar mixture and set aside to prevent browning.
- In a large glass serving bowl, create beautiful layers of fruit: start with 1 cup blueberries, followed by 2 sliced nectarines, 1 cup sliced strawberries, half of the reserved banana slices, 2 cups cubed watermelon, and 1 cup grapes.
- Garnish with 1/2 cup reserved blueberries, 1 sliced kiwi, and 1/4 cup dark sweet cherries.
- Gently pour the lime-sugar syrup over the layered fruits. Cover the bowl loosely with plastic wrap and chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to meld.
- Feel free to substitute any fruits based on your preferences and seasonal availability. Peaches, raspberries, mangoes, or oranges would all be delicious additions!
