③ Natsu Natsu Mini Berryz (③夏夏ミニベリーズ; 3 Summer, Summer, Mini Berryz) is the second mini-album by Hello! Project Kids unit Berryz Koubou. It is their second seasonal-themed release (Their previous EP, Special! Best Mini ~2.5maime no Kare~, featured a winter theme in its artwork but no winter-related songs) and features their previous single Jiriri Kiteru along with five tracks exclusive to the EP.
The EP is equally notable to Berryz Koubou fans for featuring separate members, or clusters of members, covering summer-related Hello! Project songs by Matsuura Aya, Coconuts Musume, and 3nin Matsuri.
The Limited Edition came in a box also including "Berryz Koubou original summer goods (beach ball + beach sandals)".
