Ingredients
  

2 cups fresh blueberries

1 cup Greek yogurt (plain or vanilla)

2 tablespoons honey

1 teaspoon lemon zest

1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Pinch of salt

Fresh mint leaves for garnish (optional)

Wooden or metal skewers

Instructions
 

Prepare the Skewers: If you're using wooden skewers, soak them in water for about 30 minutes to prevent burning. If using metal skewers, you can skip this step.

    Make the Zesty Dip: In a medium bowl, combine Greek yogurt, honey, lemon zest, lemon juice, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt. Whisk until smooth and creamy. Adjust sweetness by adding more honey if desired.

      Assemble the Skewers: Thread the fresh blueberries onto the skewers, leaving a little space between each berry for appearance. Aim for 5-6 blueberries per skewer.

        Serve with Dip: Arrange the blueberry skewers on a serving platter. Serve with the zesty yogurt dip in a small bowl alongside.

          Garnish: Optionally, garnish the platter with fresh mint leaves for a pop of color and added freshness.

            Enjoy: Dip the blueberry skewers into the zesty yogurt dip and indulge in this refreshing summer treat!
