Instructions
Wash all the berries thoroughly under cold running water. Pat them dry gently with a paper towel.
Slice the strawberries into halves or quarters, depending on their size. Leave the blueberries, raspberries, and blackberries whole.
In a small bowl, whisk together the honey, fresh lime juice, and lime zest until well combined.
In a large mixing bowl, gently combine all the berries. Drizzle the honey-lime dressing over the berries and toss lightly to coat.
Sprinkle the chopped mint leaves and sliced almonds over the top of the berry mixture for added flavor and crunch.
Serve immediately or refrigerate for up to 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together before serving.
