This unique and healthy dessert is a perfect way to satisfy your sweet tooth while also getting a dose of antioxidants and vitamins.

Ingredients:

• strawberries (150g)
• blueberries (100g)
• blackberries (100g)
• raspberries (100g)
• balsamic vinegar (30ml)
• honey (15ml)
• fresh mint leaves (10g)

Kitchen Tools:

• knife
• mixing bowl
• measuring spoons

Start by washing and slicing the strawberries into bite-sized pieces. In a large mixing bowl, combine the strawberries, blueberries, blackberries, and raspberries. In a separate small bowl, whisk together the balsamic vinegar and honey until well combined.

Pour the balsamic mixture over the mixed berries and gently toss to coat. Let the salad sit in the fridge for about 15-20 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together. Just before serving, tear the fresh mint leaves and sprinkle them over the top for a burst of freshness.

This Balsamic Berry Salad is best enjoyed chilled, so be sure to serve it straight from the fridge. The tangy-sweet flavors of the balsamic vinegar and honey pair perfectly with the juicy berries, creating a dessert that is both light and satisfying.
