      1. Hi Rosemary
        Can we use frozen berries ?
        And I donโ€™t have apricots at the moment, I think I will leave them out.
        It do you have an alternative, maybe dried apricots.

        Your thoughts ?

        L

      2. Hi L, sure frozen berries should work, just don’t thaw them, and dried apricots would work fine. I actually used nectarines, even peaches would be good. Hope that helps.
