1. Slice the cantaloupe and honeydew melons in half. Remove the seeds with a spoon, and use a melon baller to scoop out small, round balls of fruit. Set aside in separate bowls.
2. If you don't have a melon baller, cut the melon into small, bite-sized cubes instead.
3. Gather six glass cups or jars for serving.
4. Add 2-3 tablespoons of Greek yogurt to the bottom of each cup, spreading it in an even layer.
5. Add a layer of cantaloupe balls (or cubes) on top of the yogurt, distributing them evenly among the cups.
6. Add about 2 tablespoons of granola on top of the cantaloupe layer in each cup.
7. Add one scoop of lime sorbet (approximately 1/3 cup) to each cup, smoothing it gently with the back of a spoon if necessary.
8. Add a layer of honeydew melon balls (or cubes) over the sorbet, ensuring even distribution across all cups.
9. Repeat with another 2-3 tablespoons of Greek yogurt to create the final layer.
10. Garnish each parfait with a sprinkle of granola and a fresh mint leaf on top for decoration.
11. Serve immediately and enjoy your Sorbet Melon Parfaits!
