After an hour, take a serving plate and spread half of the infused yogurt on it for presentation.

Supreme the grapefruit and pomelo, removing as much pith as possible, and lay them out on the yogurt.

Take two Fuyu persimmons, cut them into wedges, and add them to the plate.

Add a variety of grapes to the plate, placing them decoratively.

Cut Honeycrisp apples into wedges and add them to the plate.

Peel the Mandarin oranges and add them to the serving plate.

Cut and add avocado to the plate, discussing tips for storing and ripening avocados.

Drizzle the remaining yogurt over the top of the assembled fruit.

Garnish the dish with chopped pistachios and pomegranate arils.

Optionally, garnish with fresh mint and provide tips for storing leftover mint.
