Spring is here in Australia! It’s time to bring out the BBQ and watch the footy finals! It’s a great time of the year to make the most of the weather before the heat of Summer arrives. For us at Gin Gin & Dry, Spring brings an abundance of fruit varieties. While the summer tropical fruit season is upon us, our process facility is currently busy with the last of Queensland’s winter crops of apples, citrus, strawberries, and blueberries.
Our 100% Australian Dried Blueberries are a popular dried fruit product. Great for snacks, muesli, cheese boards, cooking, baking, and in cocktail beverages with the increasing popularity in locally distilled Gin.
Blueberries are well known for their health benefits, bursting with nutrients and antioxidants. Many say they are one of the healthiest fruits you can consume. Dried blueberries are a great alternative to enjoy these super-foods all year round. They are also very versatile! Check out below our 100% Australian Dried Blueberry & Feta Salad.
