Steps to Prepare Allspice Berries Fresh

Drunken Berries

Still picking them fresh from the tree.

Recipe Summary Drunken Berries

Beautiful summer dessert using fresh berries and a splash of pear liqueur. Enjoy a la carte or a la mode. Exceptionally lovely on the Fourth of July. Serve berries by themselves or over vanilla gelato, with a small amount of excess liquid - but it should not be a berry soup.

Ingredients | Allspice Berries Fresh

1 ¼ cups white sugar

½ cup water

¼ cup pear liqueur

1 pound fresh strawberries, hulled

1 pint blueberries

1 pint fresh blackberries

Directions

Combine sugar with water in a saucepan over medium-high heat, stirring until the sugar has dissolved and the mixture comes to a boil. Reduce heat to low and simmer for 5 minutes; remove from heat and let stand 5 more minutes.

Stir pear liqueur into the syrup and refrigerate for 1 hour.

Gently combine strawberries, blueberries, and blackberries in a large bowl and pour syrup over the berries to coat. Allow berries to stand for about 3 hours to absorb flavors. Mixture can stand up to 3 days if desired.
