I enjoyed all the berry flavors with the citrus background. Did not feel I was cheating on my diet.

Lovely sweet treat
Rated: 4 stars out of 5

I served this to my two valentines (hubby and son) on Valentines Day. It was great. I used only strawberries and... blackberries. After the mixture cooled, I put french vanilla ice cream in parfait glasses, spooned in the fruit marinate (syrup only!) and topped with more ice cream, then put in freezer. At serving time, I ladled the berries AND syrup over the ice cream and topped with fresh whipped cream. WOW! Who said valentines were just for girls???Read more
