Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams Fresh strawberries
- 250 ml Champagne (or sparkling wine)
- 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
- 12 petals Edible rose petals
- 0.5 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 6 leaves Mint leaves (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
1. Gently rinse the strawberries under cold water and pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel. Hull the strawberries by removing their leafy tops and slice them in half lengthwise.
2. In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the champagne, granulated sugar, and vanilla extract. Stir gently until the sugar dissolves completely.
3. Add the halved strawberries to the champagne mixture and toss lightly to ensure the fruit is evenly coated. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and let the strawberries soak in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes, allowing them to absorb the flavor.
4. While the strawberries are marinating, rinse the edible rose petals thoroughly and gently pat them dry. Make sure the petals are free from any pesticides or contaminants.
5. Once the strawberries have marinated, divide them evenly among four serving bowls or dessert glasses along with a few spoonfuls of the champagne marinade.
6. Garnish each serving with three rose petals arranged on top and a sprig of mint leaf, if using, for a pop of color and freshness.
7. Serve immediately and enjoy this luxurious dessert with loved ones.
