My dad loves berry pies, so had to make him one for Father's Day. Fresh seasonal items used were blueberries and lemons (picked from my tree). The rosemary was from my yard too, but that thing grows year round ๐Ÿ˜‹

Other berries used were the frozen Costco mix of blackberries, raspberries, strawberries, cherries and pomegranate, on a homemade crust.

The ice cream was a custard base, with rosemary steeped in the milk & cream. I like experimenting with unique flavors of ice cream, and this one was a hit with my family.

For some reason I can't add this to the main post, but here's the pie and ice cream before serving.

I like the blackberries on the top. Really want to have a big bite now!

This looks amazing. Rosemary is literally the only plant I can grow because it requires no work whatsoever.
