Mixed Berries with Limoncello

Oh, OK, I think I’ve kept you in suspense long enough. Here’s the recipe I promised I would share that goes very well with the Lemon Yogurt Cake.

Don’t have any Lemon Yogurt Cake? Don’t worry, this fruit salad is quite tasty all on it’s own!

Mixed Berries with Limoncello
Adapted from Giada De Laurentiis

You’ll want to start off with 1 tablespoon of Limoncello and taste before adding more. While it’s delicious, it’s also quite strong! Don’t have (or want to use) any Limoncello? Honey would be a fine, albeit sweeter, substitute. Oh, and whatever you do, don’t skip the mint! You won’t believe how a little bit of fresh mint can take fruit to a whole other level.

4 cups mixed berries (like strawberries, raspberries, and blueberries)
2 tablespoons Limoncello
2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh mint leaves
2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh basil leaves

Place all the ingredients in a medium bowl and toss to combine. Serve plain, with yogurt, or with a thick slice of Low-Fat Lemon Yogurt Cake for a healthy and refreshing dessert.
