Ingredients
- 8 c. cubed watermelon about 1" in size
- 4 c. hulled and quartered strawberries
- 3 c. blueberries
- 18 large mint leaves chopped
- ½ c. fresh lime juice
- 4 T. powdered sugar
- 4 T. white rum optional
- jicama stars optional
Instructions
- Place fruit in a large bowl.
- In a small bowl, combine chopped mint, lime juice, and powdered sugar. With the back of a spoon, muddle the mint to release its flavor. Stir in rum, if desired.
- Drizzle mixture over fruit. Gently fold to combine. Then place in fridge to chill, and to let the fruit juices mingle. This can be made a few hours prior to serving. Just be sure to fold right before eating.
- To include jicama stars, cut jicama into 1/4" slices. Use a sharp star-shaped cutter to create stars. I used the smallest cutter in this set, about 1-3/4" in size. To preserve their whiteness, I wait to toss the stars into the salad until right before serving.
