It isn't really all that strange that most of us totally dig berries. Think about it: For most of us, berries were some of the first foods we ever had. Depending on your age, your mom would probably have been picking, mashing or boiling them little berries to make you a delicious purée when you were just a wee kiddo, OR she would have bought them little smoothie packs that even today - as adults - we are so tempted to buy in the store and slurp on the spot in one quick go. And when we become serious adults, then we go for the berried fruit beers - and this right here is exactly such a thing, a hip fruit bomb.
The Americans claim that cheesecake is their invention, of course they do. But as with so many other things in life, they are not correct. Cheesecakes go all the way back to Roman or even Greek times, and the more modern interpretations we owe to the British. Thank you. However, we may give the Americans that they came up with the idea of pairing this lovely, fluffy pie with fruit and berries – and blueberries in particular. With their distinct color, blueberries just mix perfectly with the pale cheese and create a neat balance of sweet and tart that makes an almost irresistible mélange. We cannot give you a Blueberry cheesecake in a can, but we have tried getting as close as we possibly can!
