Rabbiteye blueberry + curry powder
Vaccinium virgatum, commonly called rabbiteye blueberry, samllflower blueberry or southern black blueberry, is a species of blueberry native to the Southeastern United States, from North Carolina south to Florida and west to Texas. Rabbiteye blueberry is a deciduous shrub that can grow to 3-6 feet tall and with up to a 3-foot spread. The leaves are red-bronze in the spring and then turn into a dark-green color. The fruits are dark blue to black. The rabbiteye blueberries are edible and are used to make jams, sauces for breads, muffins, etc. Research has shown that the rabbiteye blueberry was a good source of polyphenols, anthocyanins and flavonoids, their antioxidant activity is beneficial to human health (PMID: 23268789; PMID: 29682153) [Wikipedia]
