Ingredients
- 4 cups fresh berries I used a combination of blueberries, strawberries and raspberries, but blackberries would work great, too
- 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 1 quart good-quality vanilla ice cream
- 1-2 cups granola (see note)
Instructions
- Wash and gently dry the berries. Place them in a medium bowl. Add the balsamic vinegar and sugar and toss well. Let the berries sit at room temperature for at least 30 minutes so the berries can macerate and release their juices.
- When ready to serve, scoop a spoonful of the berries and syrup in the bottom of a dessert or parfait glass. Top with one scoop ice cream. Repeat the layers. Top with granola and serve immediately.

Notes
- Granola: I used this recipe subbing slivered almonds for all of the cashews and leaving out the raisins.
