Steps:
- Put the yogurt in a bowl and beat well. Fold in the pomegranate seeds and chopped mint. Sweeten with a little honey or sugar, if using, then chill until ready to serve.
- Peel the grapefruits, cutting off all the pith. Cut between membranes to remove segments, holding the fruit over a bowl to catch the juices.

- Decorate the chilled yogurt with a scattering of pomegranate seeds and mint leaves, and serve with grapefruit salad.
- *Variation: You can use a mixture of oranges and blood oranges, intersperesed with thin segments of lemon. Lime segments work well with the grapefruit and mandarins or tangerines could be used too. As the idea is to create a refreshing, scented salad, juicy melons and kiwi fruit would also be ideal.

Steps:
- Mix all ingredients together in a medium bowl. Refrigerate until almost ready to serve; bring to room temperature before serving.
Tips:
- Choose ripe and juicy grapefruits: The grapefruit is the star of this salad, so make sure to select ones that are heavy for their size and have smooth, unblemished skin.
- Use fresh mint: The mint adds a refreshing flavor to the yogurt and salad. If you can't find fresh mint, you can use dried mint, but it won't be as flavorful.
- Don't overmix the yogurt: When you mix the yogurt with the honey and lime juice, do it gently so that you don't break up the yogurt curds. This will give the yogurt a smooth and creamy texture.
- Chill the yogurt and salad before serving: This will help to enhance the flavors of the yogurt and salad. You can chill them for up to 2 hours before serving.
- Garnish with pomegranate seeds: The pomegranate seeds add a pop of color and flavor to the yogurt and salad. You can also use other berries, such as blueberries or raspberries.
