Directions
Step 1
Wash all the fruits thoroughly under running water and pat them dry with a clean towel.

Step 6
In a small bowl, whisk together the yogurt, honey, ground cardamom, lemon zest, and 2 tablespoons of lemon juice until smooth and creamy.
Step 7
Pour the yogurt dressing over the fruit mixture and gently toss until all the fruit is evenly coated.
Step 8
Transfer the fruit salad to a serving dish or individual bowls. Garnish with chopped mint leaves, if desired.
Step 9
Serve immediately or chill in the refrigerator for 15–20 minutes before serving for a cooler, more refreshing experience.
