Preheat your oven to 120°C (250°F) and line a baking tray with parchment paper.
In a clean mixing bowl, whisk the egg whites until soft peaks form using a hand or stand mixer.
Gradually add the sugar, 1 tablespoon at a time, while continuing to whisk. Whisk until the mixture is glossy and stiff peaks form.
Gently fold in the cornstarch and white vinegar until just combined.
Using a spoon, dollop small rounds of meringue onto the prepared baking tray. Aim for bite-sized portions.
Bake the meringues in the preheated oven for 90 minutes. Then, turn off the oven and allow the meringues to cool completely inside (this helps them stay crisp).
While the meringues are cooling, pour the heavy whipping cream into a chilled bowl. Add the powdered sugar and vanilla extract, and whip until soft peaks form.
Dice the strawberries into small pieces and set aside along with the blueberries.
Once the meringues have cooled, begin assembling the Pavlova in individual glasses. Start with a layer of crushed meringues at the bottom.
Add a layer of whipped cream on top of the meringues, followed by a layer of mixed berries.
Repeat the layers until the glass is full, finishing with whipped cream on top.
Garnish with a sprinkle of crushed pistachios (if using), a few whole berries, and a mint leaf for a fresh touch.
Serve immediately and enjoy your elegant Pavlova in a Glass!
