Method
 

Instructions
  1. In a large bowl, combine flour, salt, and sugar. Cut in cold butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  2. Gradually add ice water while stirring until the dough comes together. Divide into two disks, wrap in plastic, and chill for at least 2 hours.
  3. Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Roll out one dough disk into a 12-inch circle and place it in a greased 9-inch pie dish.
  4. In another bowl, mix raspberries, blueberries, and blackberries with lemon juice, sugar, and cornstarch. Let rest for 10 minutes.
  5. Spoon the berry mixture into the crust, leaving excess liquid behind. Dot the top with small butter pieces.
  6. Roll out the second crust and cover the pie or cut into strips for a lattice design. Seal and crimp the edges.
  7. Brush the top crust with water and sprinkle coarse sugar over it. Place the pie on a baking sheet.
  8. Bake for 25 minutes. Cover the crust edges with foil, reduce oven temperature to 375°F (190°C), and bake another 25–35 minutes until the filling bubbles in the center.
  9. Remove from oven and let cool at room temperature for 3–4 hours before slicing.
