3. Thread one cherry tomato, one basil leaf, and one mozzarella ball onto each skewer. Repeat until all ingredients are used.
4. Season the skewers with a pinch of salt and pepper for added flavor.
5. Drizzle the balsamic glaze generously over the arranged skewers.
6. Serve immediately and enjoy!
Storage
Store leftover skewers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Keep the balsamic glaze separate to maintain freshness.
