OH MY. OH MY. OH MY. THIS is a real find. I doubled it & next time may quadruple it. Note: the 32 oz container of yogurt only yielded 3c. hmmm. But, I proceeded. We lovedlovedloved this. This is a recipe I will take to camp in Maine because I can quadrillion the recipe for crowds ahead of time & use whatever berry is in season at the time. I did not puree in strain - I only crushed the berries.In a pinch, thawed frozen berries could substitute. At first it seemed a bit daunting because of the time but no, very easy to make - the 1st 20 minutes chilling goes fast & the 2nd chilling for us was only a little over an hour. It was fine & deeeelicious! THANK YOU! Made for German Tag 3/12.
