Pair Your Berries with Fuller’s Pure Maple Syrup
We’re reached the height of summertime, and fresh berries are abundant! Here in the Northeast, berry season begins in June with the arrival of strawberries, and by mid-July, we see blueberries, raspberries, blackberries (and more!) being harvested and enjoyed by all.
Berries are bigger, juicier, and undeniably fresher in the summer months. Vibrant in color and full of flavor, berries are packed with antioxidants, providing impressive health benefits. They are rich with vitamins and minerals, especially Vitamin C, manganese, and fiber, and research has shown that these fruits can improve cognitive, heart and gut health and lower blood pressure.
While delicious on their own, berries are a natural flavor enhancement for many popular recipes. Use whole and blend into a smoothie, on top of your salad – or incorporate into a delicious maple recipe!
Berries pair perfectly with Fuller’s pure maple, providing just the right balance of sweet and tart. We’ve pulled together a handful of the berry best recipes from our collection to share with you. Check them out below!
