Start by rinsing the strawberries and cucumbers thoroughly under cold water.
Hull the strawberries and then slice them into thin, even pieces, revealing their juicy interior.
Next, peel the cucumbers if desired, then cut them into thin rounds or half-moons for a crisp bite.
Place the sliced strawberries and cucumbers into a large mixing bowl.
Chop the fresh mint leaves roughly and sprinkle them over the sliced fruit and vegetables.
Toss everything gently to combine, making sure the mint gets distributed evenly and the slices are well coated.
Optionally, drizzle a little honey or lemon juice to enhance the brightness and balance the flavors.
Give the salad one final gentle toss, then let it sit for a few minutes to allow flavors to meld.
Serve the salad in individual bowls or on a platter, garnished with optional extra mint leaves for presentation.
