11 Surprisingly Savory Berry Recipes You’ll Totally Fall For

Berries are great in drinks too, like this sparkling blueberry lemonade. But because of their uniquely sweet and slightly tangy flavor profile, the antioxidant-rich fruits are particularly nice when used outside of desserts. These 11 savory berry recipes are perfect when you want to add a fresh new flavor to some of your favorite summertime meals.
