This recipe can change each time it is made, depending on what wine is on hand and what fruit is available. In this the strawberries were perfect after about an hour, the raspberries started to disintegrate and the blueberries didn’t absorb much alcohol… but everything did stay very tasty. You can also substitute almost any liquor for the vodka – rum, tequila, triple sec, brandy, gin…
This recipe can also be made with red wine; but that is better in the winter… it’s a bit heavier and better for cool weather indulgences.
Serves: 4 or 2 depending on how much you want to drink!
