Citrus Fruit Salad with Honey-Yogurt and Mint
A bright fruit salad of grapefruit, orange, and kiwi over honey-sweetened yogurt with fresh mint—a light, refreshing finish that mirrors Detox Blend's clean, balancing spirit.
This is dessert as a deliberate exhale. After a meal that's gentle on the body, you don't want a heavy ending—you want something bright, lightly sweet, and refreshing. This citrus salad over honey-yogurt fits the brief exactly.
Three citrus fruits do the work: pink grapefruit for tartness, navel or blood orange for round sweetness, and kiwi for that distinctive green tang and a flash of color. Together they cover the full citrus spectrum and give every spoonful a slightly different note.
Greek yogurt with honey is the soft base. The yogurt's tang plays into the citrus, while the honey ties everything to the gentle sweetness in Detox Blend itself. Skip flavored yogurt—plain is the right choice here.
Fresh mint and a tiny drizzle of cold-pressed honey on top finish each bowl. A few flaked almonds add the smallest crunch without weight. Serve right after assembling so the citrus stays bright and the yogurt stays cool.
Ingredients
- 1 pink grapefruit, segmented (white pith removed)
- 2 oranges (navel or blood), segmented
- 2 kiwis, peeled and sliced into half-moons
- 300g full-fat plain Greek yogurt
- 2 tbsp honey (plus extra for drizzling)
- 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
- Zest of 1/2 lemon
- 8 fresh mint leaves, thinly sliced
- 2 tbsp flaked almonds, lightly toasted
- Pinch of flaky sea salt
How to make it
- 1Toast the flaked almonds in a dry pan over medium heat for 2–3 minutes, shaking constantly, until just golden. Set aside.
- 2In a bowl, mix Greek yogurt with 2 tbsp honey, vanilla, and lemon zest until smooth.
- 3Segment grapefruit and oranges by cutting off the peel with a sharp knife (removing all white pith), then sliding the knife along each membrane to release clean segments. Slice kiwis into half-moons.
- 4Divide honey-yogurt among 4 small bowls or glasses.
- 5Arrange citrus segments and kiwi over the yogurt in a casual pile.
- 6Top each bowl with sliced mint, a few toasted almonds, a tiny drizzle of extra honey, and the smallest pinch of flaky salt. Serve immediately, with a cup of Detox Blend tea on the side.
