The flavor is awesome! I used Splenda as a substitute for sugar and omitted the black pepper...all personal preferences. This was a tasty and unusual treat! Prepared as a participant in the Feb 2010 Aus/NZ Swap #37.

LOVE THIS SALSA! I made it to serve with baked chicken breasts, & then also had it with grilled burgers ~ OUTSTANDING! Used just a dash of the hot pepper sauce in this, but everything else was right up there! Am intrigued with Baby Kato's using blackberries instead of the blue & will have to try that another time!

This salsa was excellant, I served it with roasted chicken. It was pretty and very flavorful. I used blackberries instead of blueberries because I was out, raspberry balsamic vinegar and habanero hot sauce. I really enjoyed all the different intense flavours and the subtle textures offered in this salsa. Thanks for sharing.
