Recipe Request: Fruited Meads, Cyzer, or Hydromels with Berries

Anyone using berries in home fermenting? I've mostly been using my Montmorency cherries or no fruit, but wondering if anyone has used berries in anything interesting and wants to share recipes or tips?

My standard recipe: (64 oz growler, filled to 50-54 oz to allow vigorous fermentation)

1lbs honey

6-12oz cherries (this is what I'm replacing with berries)

54oz liquid (water, apple juice, and/or black tea)

Champagne or White Wine Yeast (and Fermaid)

Fruit for 4-6 days of 14-21 days fermentation, put in bottles to carbonate and age 1-6 months+

For context: I grow raspberries, strawberries, and variety of blackberries well now. Hoping to have honeyberries, aronia, goji, saskatoons, and golden currant maturing in the next few years
