A fresh, festive, and no-fuss fruit platter featuring strawberries, mozzarella, grapes, and blueberries, perfect for summer parties and patriotic celebrations.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups fresh hulled strawberries
  • 2 cups fresh blueberries
  • 1 cup seedless green or white grapes
  • 8 oz mini mozzarella balls or fresh mozzarella slices
  • A handful of fresh mint leaves (optional)
  • 12 tablespoons honey or agave syrup
  • Zest of 1 lemon

Instructions

  1. Wash and dry all the fruit thoroughly to prevent extra moisture on the platter.
  2. Hull the strawberries by removing the green leafy tops. Slice larger berries in half; smaller berries can stay whole.
  3. Slice the mozzarella if using a ball or log form. Mini mozzarella balls can be left whole.
  4. Arrange the fruit on a large serving platter in a visually appealing pattern, creating stripes or sections with strawberries, mozzarella and grapes, and blueberries.
  5. Sprinkle fresh lemon zest evenly over the fruit.
  6. Drizzle honey or agave syrup lightly over the entire platter.
  7. Garnish with fresh mint leaves scattered across the top.
  8. Serve immediately or cover loosely with plastic wrap and refrigerate for up to 2 hours before serving.

Notes

Pat dry fruit to avoid sogginess. Slice strawberries just before assembling to keep fresh. Use fresh, ripe fruit for best flavor. Add fresh herbs like mint last minute to maintain color and aroma. Adjust honey drizzle based on fruit sweetness. For dairy-free option, substitute mozzarella with coconut yogurt or vegan cheese. Toasted nuts can be added for crunch.
