30 minutes

Berry salad with mint and orange liqueur is a light, refreshing dessert that embodies the exquisite traditions of Italian cuisine. Bright berries—strawberries, raspberries, blackberries, and blueberries—combine in harmony of sweetness and slight tartness, while the orange liqueur 'Grand Marnier' adds warm citrus notes and refined depth of flavor. Sugar helps to enhance the natural juiciness of the fruits, and fresh mint brings a refreshing coolness and exquisite aroma. This salad is perfect as a summer dessert; it suits a romantic dinner, festive gathering or simply enjoying on a warm sunny day. In Italy, such fruit dishes are valued for their ability to highlight the natural beauty and taste of seasonal products, turning simple ingredients into true gastronomic delight.
