For the best flavor, use the freshest ingredients possible. Ripe, in-season cherry tomatoes and high-quality mozzarella make a significant difference. If you can't find small mozzarella balls, you can use a larger ball and cut it into bite-sized pieces. Prepare the skewers up to a few hours in advance, but keep them refrigerated until serving to maintain freshness. Consider adding a small piece of prosciutto or salami to each skewer for an extra layer of flavor and texture. Aged balsamic vinegar can substitute for the balsamic glaze.
