Brenda’s Notes:

You can find frozen blackberries at Whole Foods. Look for brands like Stahlbush Island Farms, Scenic Fruit or Willamette Valley Fruit Co.
If you don’t have berry stevia, no worries, you can use any sweetener you prefer. Use 1/2 cup of your favorite sweetener than taste and adjust as needed.
The MCT oil helps keep the gelato nice and soft even after being frozen overnight. If you don’t have MCT oil replace it with vodka.
