# Expert Tips:

01 -
  • The honey and lime create this perfect sweet tangy balance that makes ordinary fruit taste extraordinary
  • It comes together in literally fifteen minutes but looks like something from a fancy restaurant
02 -
  • The mint loses its pretty color if you add it too far ahead so save that for the last thirty minutes
  • Watermelon releases water as it sits so don't dress this more than an hour before serving
03 -
  • Let the dressed fruit sit for five minutes before serving to let flavors meld
  • Use the best honey you can find since it really comes through in the dressing
