Using brown sugar instead of white adds a subtle caramel molasses note to frozen yogurt. It also enhances the dark, rich flavor of blackberry purée. A pinch of clove adds more spice.
Why this recipe works:
- Full-fat yogurt brings a balance of acidity, creaminess, and fruity flavor to the dessert.
- Brown sugar and cloves add subtle caramel and spice flavors to complement rich blackberry purée.

Add lemon juice and salt in 1/4 teaspoon increments until flavor tastes balanced between sweet and tart.
