Rinse the strawberries and blueberries thoroughly under cold water. Pat dry with a clean kitchen towel.
Hull the strawberries and slice them into thin pieces.
In a small bowl, mix the vanilla yogurt and honey until well combined for a subtly sweet flavor.
Gather six clear serving glasses or jars to best showcase the layered colors of the parfait.
To assemble each parfait, start by spooning about 2 tablespoons of granola into the bottom of a glass.
Add 2 tablespoons of vanilla yogurt over the granola, gently spreading it into an even layer.
Place a layer of strawberries on top of the yogurt, followed by another layer of granola.
Next, add another layer of yogurt, this time topping it with a generous layer of blueberries.
Repeat the layers if the glasses are tall, finishing with blueberries or a mix of strawberries and blueberries on top.
Optionally, garnish each parfait with a fresh mint leaf for an extra touch of color and freshness.
Serve immediately or refrigerate for up to 2 hours before serving to keep the granola crunchy.
