_Sips my afternoon tea_ Ladies, let me tell you about my absolute favorite guilt-free treat that’s been getting rave reviews from my family and friends! This isn’t your basic fruit bowl – oh no, honey – this is a symphony of flavors that’ll make your taste buds dance and your Instagram followers drool.
Let me spill the tea on this gorgeous 5-star afternoon fruit bowl that’s become my go-to when I’m craving something sweet but don’t want to sabotage my wellness goals (because we’ve all been there, right?).
Here’s what you’ll need:
– 1 cup fresh strawberries, sliced
– 1 ripe mango, cubed
– 2 kiwis, peeled and sliced
– 1/2 cup blueberries
– 1 dragon fruit, scooped into balls (trust me on this one!)
– 2 tablespoons honey
– Fresh mint leaves
– 1/4 cup granola (optional, but adds that perfect crunch)
– A sprinkle of chia seeds
Now, let’s get this party started! 💁♀️
First, wash all your fruits thoroughly – nobody wants a side of pesticides with their healthy snack! Slice everything up into bite-sized pieces. Pro tip: make sure your mango is perfectly ripe – you know, when it’s just soft enough to give a little squeeze but not so soft it’s turning into mango juice in your hands.

Now, here’s where the magic happens. Instead of just throwing everything in a bowl (we’re not savages!), we’re going to create layers. Start with the mango base, add your strawberries, then kiwis, followed by those gorgeous blueberries. Crown it with your dragon fruit balls – they’re not just pretty, they’re packed with antioxidants!
Drizzle that honey like you’re painting a masterpiece, sprinkle those chia seeds like fairy dust, and finish with fresh mint leaves. If you’re feeling extra, add that granola for some crunch (because who doesn’t love a little texture?).
The best part? This beauty keeps in the fridge for up to 4 hours, so you can prep it ahead for when those afternoon cravings hit. Plus, it’s totally customizable – swap fruits based on what’s in season or what you’re craving!
Y’all, I can’t even tell you how many compliments I get when I serve this at my girls’ brunches. It’s literally like eating the rainbow, but make it fancy! 🌈
