Equipment

  • Medium saucepan
  • Medium bowl

Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup strawberries
  • 3 tablespoons Pinot Noir wine
  • 1/2 cup superfine sugar
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice

Instructions
 

  • Prep: Wash and quarter enough strawberries to make 1 cup.
  • Cook: In a saucepan, combine 1 cup strawberries, 3 tablespoons Pinot Noir wine, 1/2 cup superfine sugar and 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer for about 20 minutes. You’ll notice the syrup starting to form while still retaining some strawberry chunks. Remove from heat and pour into a separate bowl and 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice, stir until fully combined.
  • Chill: Refrigerate the syrup for at least an hour. Once it reaches room temperature or cooler, it’s ready to enhance any dessert of your choice. This syrup is especially delightful on pavlovas but also pairs wonderfully with cakes, pies, and even vanilla ice cream!
