03 - Distribute approximately 2 tablespoons of mixed berries over the granola layer in each glass, pressing gently to settle.
04 - Repeat the layering sequence of yogurt, granola, and berries until all ingredients are used, completing the parfait with a final berry layer on top.

# Expert Hints:

01 -
  • These come together in under ten minutes but look like you put real thought into them
  • The contrast between creamy yogurt, sweet berries, and crunchy granola hits every texture craving
02 -
  • The granola starts getting soggy after about two hours, so timing matters more than you might think
  • Thawed frozen berries release so much liquid they can turn the whole thing watery and sad
03 -
  • Dry your berries thoroughly after washing so the water doesnt pool at the bottom
  • Let the granola cool completely if youre making it homemade, otherwise it creates steam in the layers
