Champagne Strawberries
Champagne Strawberries are fresh strawberries soaked in champagne to infuse flavor and then coated in sugar for a sweet, sparkling treat. Poking the berries helps the champagne soak in, while soaking in the refrigerator softens the berries and imparts subtle champagne notes. The sugared coating adds a crunchy sweetness perfect for serving as a festive appetizer or dessert garnish.
Ingredients
- 1 bottle champagne
- 18 strawberry fresh
- ½ cup granulated sugar
Instructions
- Wash the strawberries thoroughly. Fill a mixing bowl with water and some baking soda, place the strawberries in the bowl for 20 minutes. Then drain and rinse.
- Use a toothpick to poke a hole or two into each strawberry. I like to do this because it helps the champagne soak into the berry.
- Cover the bowl and let soak in the fridge for 3-4 hours. Remove the berries and gently pat dry.
- Dip into a bowl with sugar and then place on a serving tray. ENJOY!!
Notes
- Store the prepared berries in an airtight container for up to three days to maintain freshness.
- For longer storage, freeze the sugared berries for up to three months.
