Cinnamon Free Berry Fruit Salad with Lemon and Mint

Bright, juicy, and bursting with color, this mixed berry salad is the kind of dish that looks like you spent hours on it but comes together in minutes. Four varieties of fresh berries get tossed in a simple dressing of lemon juice, lemon zest, and honey, letting the natural sweetness of the fruit do most of the heavy lifting. A handful of thinly sliced fresh mint scattered over the top adds an unexpected freshness that makes every bite feel a little more special. Many fruit salads and pre-made dressings sneak in warming spices that can be hard to spot on an ingredient label, so making this one from scratch means you know exactly what's in the bowl. The short resting time before serving is a small but important step — it gives the berries a chance to release their juices and meld with the dressing into something that tastes far greater than the sum of its parts. Serve it as a light dessert, a vibrant brunch side, or an afternoon snack straight from the bowl.
