Fruit or Berries with Liqueur Recipe Photo

Ingredients

  • Berries and/or fruit, rinsed, drained and cut into bite-sized pieces as needed
  • Liqueur, liquor or wine of choice (see suggestions below)
  • Mint sprigs (optional garnish)

Use whatever fruits or berries are available. Splash with a liqueur such as orange liqueur or limoncello, my two favorites. You can even use liquor such as cognac, brandy, or white rum, or a flavorful sweet wine such as port. Mix well, cover and set in the refrigerator for at least two hours and taste for adjustments. Serve in dessert bowls or, for a more elegant presentation, place in your favorite stemmed glasses. For an extra touch, pour some champagne over the fruit and watch it bubble. If desired, garnish with a sprig of mint.

Note: For a kid-friendly version, macerate the fruit with a little orange juice. Place in individual bowls. Before serving, add liqueur to the adult desserts.
