What’s in Season? Berries and Cherries

No classic Kiwi Christmas is complete without backyard cricket, summer BBQs and an abundance of delicious food!
The best part? Fresh summer berries, all ripe for the picking during December.

Strawberries, raspberries, blueberries – the list is endless! Berries are not only delicious but also give a good dose of antioxidants and fibre – so you’ll have more energy to get out and enjoy those long summer days.

Treat yourself to these Christmas Berry Tarts from 5+ A Day, that are not only good for the soul, but good for the body too. Not to mention, it’s also great to whip up for dessert after Christmas lunch!
