Print Recipe

A quick, no-cook, and festive summer snack featuring fresh strawberries, blueberries, mini marshmallows, and optional red grapes, perfect for patriotic celebrations and refreshing gatherings.

Ingredients

  • Fresh strawberries – hulled and halved
  • Fresh blueberries – washed and patted dry
  • Mini marshmallows
  • Red grapes (optional) – halved
  • Wooden skewers – 6-8 inches long, food-safe
  • Fresh mint leaves (optional) – for garnish

Instructions

  1. Wash and prep the fruit: rinse strawberries, blueberries, and grapes under cool water. Pat dry with paper towels. Hull and halve strawberries and grapes. Set aside.
  2. Prepare your skewers: soak wooden skewers in water for about 10 minutes if you plan to grill later; otherwise, dry skewers are fine.
  3. Start threading the kabobs: begin with a strawberry half (red), followed by a mini marshmallow (white), then a blueberry (blue). Repeat this pattern until the skewer is nearly full, leaving about an inch at the bottom for holding. Alternate sizes for balance.
  4. Arrange the finished kabobs neatly on a serving platter. Garnish with fresh mint leaves if desired.
  5. Chill the kabobs in the refrigerator for 15 minutes before serving for a cool, refreshing treat (optional).

Notes

Use firm, ripe strawberries to avoid mushiness. Pat fruit dry to prevent sogginess and sticky marshmallows. Soak wooden skewers before grilling to prevent splinters and burning. Assemble kabobs gently to avoid tearing marshmallows. Can be made up to 24 hours ahead and stored covered in the fridge. For vegan or dairy-free options, substitute marshmallows with vegan marshmallows, coconut jelly, or vegan cream cheese cubes.
