Instructions
1. Start by washing and patting dry the fresh berries. Slice strawberries if using.

5. Add a layer of fresh berries (a small handful) on top of the granola-nut layer.
6. Drizzle 1 teaspoon of honey or maple syrup over the berries for a touch of sweetness.
7. Repeat the layers of yogurt, granola-nut mixture, and berries until the glasses are full, finishing with a topping of nuts and berries on the very top for presentation.
8. Optionally, sprinkle chia seeds over the top and garnish each parfait with a fresh mint leaf.
9. Serve immediately or refrigerate for up to 2 hours before serving.
