Ingredients:

  • 1 lb fresh strawberries, hulled and quartered
  • 1 cup mini mozzarella pearls
  • 1 pint fresh blueberries
  • 2 tbsp honey
  • 1 tbsp fresh lime juice
  • 1 tsp lime zest

Instructions:

  1. Wash all berries in cold water. Use paper towels to pat the strawberries and blueberries completely dry. Note: Wet berries make the glaze slide off instead of sticking.
  2. Hull the strawberries and slice them into uniform chunks that match the diameter of the mozzarella pearls. Wait until the pieces are roughly 1 inch wide for a balanced look.
  3. Thread the ingredients onto 12 inch bamboo skewers in a repeating pattern: one strawberry, two mozzarella pearls, and three blueberries.
  4. Push the ingredients firmly together but don't squash them. Leave 2 inches of the bamboo exposed at the bottom as a handle.
  5. In a small bowl, whisk together the honey, lime juice, and lime zest. Whisk until the honey is fully dissolved into the juice.
  6. Arrange the finished skewers on a chilled platter.
  7. Lightly brush the honey lime mixture over the berries just before serving to create a glistening finish.
  8. Serve immediately while the fruit is crisp and the cheese is cool.
