Years ago I visited a restaurant in Tuscon, Arizona--I think it was the 
Terra Cotta Cafe (it was reviewed in this list years ago).  One of the 
desserts was a cheesecake served with a chipotle spiked raspberry sauce.  I 
suspect a chipotles would combine nicely with any red berry.  I've also 
spiked a bottle of commercial pineapple-apricot preserves with fresh 
hab.  Another excellent combination that should work in a pie (I suspect 
peach-hab would be great as well).
