This sweet-tart glaze tastes great over fresh fruit (shown here over chopped mango, apple, kiwi and blueberries). It would also complement roasted vegetables or ice cream or make a tasty alternative to jelly in a peanut butter sandwich.

I’ve heard of strawberries and balsamic but never blueberries and balsamic. I’m excited to try this!
