To use the berry medley, you can thaw it in the refrigerator overnight or use it directly from frozen in many recipes.

They can also be gently heated on the stovetop to create a quick fruit sauce for pancakes, waffles, or desserts. The natural juices released during cooking add a lovely color and flavor.

How to keep the rest
After opening, reseal the bag tightly and store it in the freezer. Ensure there is no air trapped inside the bag to prevent freezer burn. It is best to use the berries within a few months for optimal quality. Keep the bag away from the freezer door to maintain a consistent cold temperature.
