You can find a detailed recipe for the fruit salad with melon and cherry with the exact quantities and step-by-step instructions below.
Sweeten melon and cherry fruit salad
If you want to sweeten your melon and cherry fruit salad, you can use honey, as for the fruit salad with yogurt, or agave syrup. Then mix it together with lemon juice and mint leaves.
Any fruit syrup, such as my strawberry syrup or orange syrup, is also suitable for sweetening the fruit salad. It provides even more fruitiness and flavor.
Add more fruit
This fruit salad recipe can be modified according to taste, similar to the winter fruit salad or tropical fruit salad recipe. For example, instead of honeydew melon, you can use another sweet melon, such as cantaloupe or galia melon. Sweet cherries can be replaced with sour cherries.
You can also mix other fruit into the salad. Fresh berries, such as strawberries, raspberries or blackberries, combine perfectly with the melon. You can also add apricots, currants or peaches.
Refine with herbs and spices
I have refined my melon and cherry fruit salad with fresh mint, similar to the honeydew iced tea. It gives it an aromatic and refreshing note. You can also use basil instead.
Vanilla is also very suitable for flavoring the fruit salad. Use the seeds from a scraped vanilla pod or ground bourbon vanilla bean.
Add a dash of rose water to make the fruit salad particularly delicious and unique. Also try my rose lemonade as well as my raspberry sorbet and the walnut ghriba, which are also flavored with rose water.
