This isn’t your average salad! Say goodbye to lettuce, and hello to savory cured meat, sweet melon, creamy mozzarella, and spicy arugula. To top it off, we have a super simple tangy mint basil vinaigrette that just screams “spring”. Make the dressing in advance and then pull together this salad for a quick lunch, your picnic in a portable container, or light dinner whenever the mood strikes! Paired with Le Grand Fizz, a cocktail that will forever change the way you enjoy a spritz with GREY GOOSE®, lime, and ST-GERMAIN® Elderflower Liqueur for the ultimate serve.
