# Expert Suggestions:

01 -
  • It takes less time to make than it does to find a spoon in my messy drawer.
  • The tangy yogurt cuts through the sweetness just enough to keep you coming back for more.
  • You probably already have everything you need sitting in your kitchen right now.
02 -
  • Don't skip the lemon zest—it's the secret ingredient that makes this taste homemade instead of store-bought.
  • If your honey is too thick to whisk in easily, warm it gently in the microwave for 10 seconds first.
03 -
  • Use a microplane for the lemon zest to avoid any bitter white pith sneaking in.
  • Taste as you go and adjust the honey or lemon juice to match your fruit—sweeter fruit needs more tang, tart fruit needs more honey.
