Frozen Summer Berry Tart

Nothing beats an ice cold treat on a hot summer day. Why not cool off with something tasty!

The warm sun came out and inspired a new dessert. I wanted to make something sweet and healthy that represents my love for summer and all the delicious berries and not to mention my Jerry Berry. :)
​
