As long as they are bluer than other bakyjba, {blanu bakyjba}
should work too. Even better than zirpu actually, if cranberries are
purplish red and those are the only two types of cowberry. (I don't
recognize any of them myself, and I probably still wouldn't if I 
knew what their corresponding name in Spanish was.)

How are cowberries associated with cows, BTW?
Are cranberries associated with cranes?
