HEALTH & BENEFITS

Blueberries are rich in antioxidants and are known for their anti-inflammatory benefits. They are also low in calories and rich in vitamin C and fiber. Blackberries, on the other hand, are full of vitamin C, dietary fiber, and vitamin K.
Honey is a great alternative to sugar as it contains antioxidants, enzymes, and has antimicrobial and antibacterial properties. However, it is still high in calories and should be consumed in moderation.
