# Insider Tips:

01 -
  • The combination of lime and mint transforms ordinary fruit into something that feels like a restaurant dessert but takes minutes to throw together
  • It travels beautifully to potlucks and actually tastes better after the flavors have had time to mingle in the fridge
02 -
  • I learned the hard way that adding mint too early makes it turn dark and slightly bitter, always chop and add it right before serving
  • The sea salt is what makes this taste professional rather than just like fruit salad, dont skip it or it will taste flat
03 -
  • Roll your lime on the counter before juicing to break down the internal membranes, you'll get significantly more juice this way
  • Use a sharp knife and see slicing motion for the watermelon rather than pressing down, this keeps the cubes intact and pretty
