Ingredients

• 1 cup Pomegranate seeds
• 2 medium Orange
• 2 medium Apples
• 2 medium Kiwi
• 1 large Banana
• 1.5 cups Grapes
• 1.5 tablespoons Rose water
• 2 tablespoons Fresh lime juice
• 1.5 tablespoons Honey
• 2 tablespoons Chopped fresh mint leaves
• 3 tablespoons Optional pistachios (chopped)

Directions

Step 1

Begin by prepping the fruits. De-seed the pomegranate and set aside 1 cup of arils in a large bowl.

Step 2

Peel the oranges, remove any excess white pith, and dice them into bite-sized pieces. Add to the bowl.

Step 3

Core and dice the apples into small pieces, leaving the skin on for added color and texture. Add them to the large bowl.

Step 4

Peel and dice the kiwi, then add it to the mixture.

Step 5

Peel and slice the banana into thin rounds, and gently toss it into the fruit mix to keep it from breaking apart.

Step 6

Add the grapes whole, unless they are particularly large, in which case slice them in half.

Step 7

In a small mixing bowl, whisk together the rose water, fresh lime juice, and honey until well-incorporated.

Step 8

Pour the dressing over the mixed fruit and toss gently to coat all the pieces evenly.

Step 9

Sprinkle the chopped mint leaves and, if desired, chopped pistachios over the top for a delightful crunch and burst of flavor.

Step 10

Chill in the refrigerator for at least 10 minutes before serving, allowing the flavors to meld together.
