Ingredients
Scale
- 6 cups watermelon, seeded and cut into bite-sized cubes
- 1 cup fresh blueberries
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
- ½ teaspoon fresh mint, finely chopped
Instructions
- Place the cubed watermelon in a large serving bowl.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the honey, fresh lime juice, and chopped mint until well combined.
- Pour the honey-lime dressing over the watermelon.
- Add the blueberries and gently toss until all the fruit is evenly coated.
- Refrigerate until ready to serve for the best flavor and texture.
- Garnish with fresh mint leaves if desired and serve chilled.
Notes
- Use a ripe, chilled watermelon for the sweetest flavor.
- Fresh blueberries work best; avoid frozen blueberries as they release excess juice.

- For extra citrus flavor, stir in a little lime zest.
- Best enjoyed the day it’s made, but leftovers can be refrigerated for up to 2 days.
