Wash the cucumbers, cherry tomatoes, and herbs thoroughly under cold running water.
Slice the cucumbers into thin rounds. If using large cucumbers, cut them in half lengthwise before slicing.
Halve the cherry tomatoes. If they are particularly large, quarter them instead.
Peel the red onion and slice it thinly into half-moons.
Finely chop the fresh mint leaves and parsley.
In a small bowl, whisk together the orange juice, pineapple juice, lime juice, olive oil, honey, salt, and black pepper until completely combined. This will be the jungle juice-inspired dressing.
In a large salad bowl, combine the cucumber slices, halved cherry tomatoes, red onion slices, chopped mint, and parsley.
Pour the dressing over the salad ingredients and gently toss to coat everything evenly.
Let the salad sit for 5 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.
Serve immediately, garnished with additional mint leaves if desired.
