Tips:
- Prep the Berries: Before assembling the parfaits, thoroughly wash and dry the berries to remove any dirt or residue. If using frozen berries, thaw them completely before using.
- Choose Ripe Berries: To ensure the best flavor, select ripe and sweet berries. Look for berries that are plump and brightly colored, with no signs of bruising or damage.
- Layer Wisely: When assembling the parfaits, layer the ingredients in a visually appealing manner. Start with a layer of yogurt, followed by a layer of berries, and then a layer of granola or nuts. Repeat the layering process until the parfait glass is full.
- Chill Before Serving: After assembling the parfaits, chill them in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before serving. This allows the flavors to meld and the parfait to set properly.
- Garnish with Freshness: Before serving, garnish the parfaits with additional fresh berries, a sprinkle of granola or nuts, or a drizzle of honey or maple syrup for an extra touch of sweetness.
