Rosy Rosé Berries: Strawberries and Raspberries in Wine

A favourite "grown-up" summery and romantic dessert in our home! Summer berries - raspberries and strawberries, steeped in Rosé wine with a little sugar. Great by themselves or with whipped cream or crème fraiche. So easy to make - and they work better if made up to 48 hours beforehand. These berries are stunning if used in trifles or fruit fools! Please adjust the sugar to your personal taste and also according to the sweetness of the fruit.

Simply divine! Didn't have strawberries, so doubled up on the raspberries ~ ooh-la-la! Used 3 T. sugar and this was just the right sweetness for us. I will DEFINITELY be making this AGAIN! I think I have two more pickings on my berries, so want to try this for my Recipe #240749, too! *Made for Aussie-NZ Recipe Swap Aug 07*Reply
