Beat the heat with this light, juicy, and amazingly refreshing watermelon salad drizzled with a sweet, tart and fruity fig balsamic vinegar syrup. You can crumble over some feta to add a savoury bite and chopped pistachios for an added crunch to this fruit salad.
Cherry, Raspberry and Watermelon salad with Fig Balsamic Syrup
adapted from taste
|
- Use a large sharp knife to cut the watermelon into 1cm-thick slices. Use 3cm, 6cm and 8cm star-shaped pastry cutters to cut shapes from the watermelon.
- Arrange the watermelon, cherries, raspberries and lemon balm leaves on a serving platter. Drizzle the syrup over and serve immediately.

What a gorgeous and refreshing salad , Angie ! Perfect for this hot and stifling weather here :D
My mouth is watering just thinking about that fig balsamic syrup :)
I love a delicious watermelon salad this time of year when it is SO SWEET! I like the addition of cherries too! I have some fig balsamic on hand and will drizzle it on my next salad made with your recipe, Angie! Have a lovely day!
Love all those particular fruits, Angie. Nice fig vinaigrette for dressing, too.
Very refreshing - sweet yet a little tart to make a great balance. I have never had watermelon with balsamic syrup and I'd love to try it.
I have been eating a lot of watermelon this summer. They seem to be particularly good this year, at least near us.
Never would of thought to add cherries and watermelon together, I bet this is delicious Angie, love the fig balsamic syrup.
Angie - what a delightfully refreshing salad - love the sweet, tart and fruity fig balsamic vinegar syrup! And love the shapes of the watermelon!
And I just finished a watermelon...I guess I have to by a new one. Loely fruit salad and the fig balsamic syrup sounds great.

I cannot get enough watermelon lately! This salad sounds so refreshing and delicious!
It looks so pretty, festive, and delicious!
What a cute salad! hee, it's too cute to eat!
What a coincidence, I have a watermelon, shrimp and feta salad on the menu for this weekend at the cottage. It's very hot and humid here in Toronto so a salad that is light and sweet is perfect for a light lunch or supper.
