Make the Most of This Recipe With Tips From The Betty Crocker® Kitchens
Tip:
Blueberries can be substituted for the raspberries. Mango can be substituted for the cantaloupe or honeydew.
Tip:
When purchasing fresh berries, make sure to look the package over carefully. The fruit on the bottom shouldn’t be bruised, and the fruit should smell sweet, not musty. Store berries unwashed and loosely covered in the refrigerator.
