Ingredients

Servings
  • 3 cup (15 oz/426 g) fruit or berries of your choice
  • ½ cup (4 oz/115 g) granulated sugar
  • Juice and zest of 1 lemon

Notes

  • As with any fruit, using the best, seasonal fruit will always yield the best results, but macerating is also a great way to enhance off-season fruit.
  • To add more flavor, you can add two tablespoons of a liquor, liqueur, or vinegar of your choice.
  • Ground spices can also be an excellent addition, depending on what you are serving the fruit with.
  • Add a vanilla bean to your fruit: split the bean in half, scrape out the seeds, and add the seeds and pod to the macerating fruit. Remove the pod before serving.
  • Fresh herbs, grated orange or grapefruit zest, or grated fresh ginger are also wonderful ways to flavor macerated fruit!
  • This fruit only keeps for about one day but you can adjust the amount to suit your needs.
