Ingredients
  

1 medium cantaloupe, cubed

8 oz prosciutto, thinly sliced

1 cup fresh mozzarella balls (bocconcini)

Fresh mint leaves, for garnish

Balsamic glaze, for drizzling

Sea salt, to taste

Black pepper, to taste

Skewers (either wooden or metal)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Ingredients: Start by cutting the cantaloupe and honeydew melons into bite-sized cubes. If using wooden skewers, soak them in warm water for about 30 minutes to prevent burning.

    Assemble the Skewers: Take a skewer and thread on one cube of cantaloupe, followed by a folded slice of prosciutto, a mozzarella ball, and then a cube of honeydew. Repeat this process until all the ingredients are used, leaving a little space at the ends of the skewers for handling.

      Season the Skewers: Once all skewers are assembled, lightly sprinkle them with sea salt and freshly cracked black pepper to enhance the flavors.

        Drizzle with Balsamic Glaze: Just before serving, drizzle a generous amount of balsamic glaze over the skewers to add a sweet and tangy depth to the dish.

          Garnish: Finally, top each skewer with a fresh mint leaf for a pop of color and an aromatic finish.

            Serve and Enjoy: Arrange the skewers on a platter for a stunning presentation! They are perfect as an appetizer, party snack, or summer treat.
