Equipment
- 3-4 inch skewers
Ingredients
- 1 cup fresh strawberries tops removed and cut into quarters
- 1 cup fresh blueberries
- 1 cup fresh raspberries
- 1 cup fresh blackberries
- 1 teaspoon granulated sugar optional
- chopped fresh mint leaves
- raspberry vinaigrette or balsamic glaze
Instructions

- Drizzle with balsamic glaze or raspberry vinaigrette before serving.
Notes
The length of each skewer and the amount of fruit it holds determine the number of skewers you can make and their calorie content. For instance, a 3-inch skewer can hold about 16 pieces of fruit, while a 6-inch skewer can accommodate twice as much fruit, yielding approximately 8 skewers.
You'll have extra strawberries and blueberries, but you'll need more blackberries to maintain the same fruit sequence for additional skewers. A single cup of blackberries usually contains only 15-20 berries, so consider buying two containers if you plan to make more skewers.
