sweet-tart-cool-fresh-bliss

J. made this for me because he's full of good things and has to share some of them in order to avoid bursting open, which would be terribly unattractive and inconvenient.

A splendid summer sweet, this dessert is lovely to look at and tangy-sweet-refreshing to consume. I will attempt to relay the assembly list for you:

Lime-Basil Gelato (Il Laboratorio del Gelato)

New Jersey Blueberries

Torn Fresh Mint Leaves

Drizzle of Lime-Blossom Honey

If you were serving this to a crowd, I'd ask you to consider chilling the plates in the freezer and putting down a gingersnap or a teaspoon of poundcake crumbs before plating the gelato. That'd keep the meltiness at bay while you do up a series for your lucky guests.

Bon appétit!
