Something you can make with fresh or frozen blueberries
Origin
Blueberries are native to North America, specifically to regions such as the United States and Canada. They have been consumed by indigenous peoples for centuries and were an important part of their diet. Blueberries were later cultivated and are now commercially grown in various parts of the world, including North America, Europe, and Australia. The majority of fresh blueberries available in the market are grown in the United States, particularly in states like Michigan, Maine, and New Jersey. Frozen blueberries, on the other hand, can be sourced from different regions depending on the brand or supplier. They are often picked and frozen at their peak ripeness to preserve their flavor and nutritional value.
