Wash and pat dry the strawberries, blueberries, and raspberries. Hull and slice the strawberries into thin pieces.
In a medium bowl, combine the strawberries, blueberries, and raspberries with the granulated sugar. Gently toss to coat and set aside for 10 minutes to macerate.
In another medium bowl, whip the heavy whipping cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract using a hand mixer or a whisk until soft peaks form. Be careful not to overwhip.
Gently fold the lemon curd into the whipped cream until fully combined, creating a creamy lemon mixture.
To assemble the parfait, layer 2 tablespoons of the lemon cream at the bottom of each serving glass or bowl.
Add 2 tablespoons of granola as the next layer, followed by 2 tablespoons of the macerated berry mixture.
Repeat the layers (lemon cream, granola, and berries) until the glasses are filled, finishing with a dollop of lemon cream and a sprinkle of lemon zest on top.
Serve immediately, or refrigerate for up to 2 hours before serving to allow flavors to meld.
