Excellent. as others have said, it's too thin if you only cook it for 15 mins.
Also, i added a 1/4 cup of Framboise in place of 1/4c of water.
Perhaps i will only add a total of 3/4 cup liquid next time.

As others have stated, this recipe is very simple and tastes amazing. However, it didn't thicken to a "sauce." I made mine to serve over cheesecake and wanted it to be almost a slightly thin glaze. I left the blueberries in instead of straining them out. I think it would have been good either way though. It was just personal preference to leave them in. I substituted the vanilla sugar for organic granulated sugar and Haitian vanilla along with some pure maple syrup. The flavor is amazing! I brought the sauce to a boil and turned it down to a simmer as instructed, but I could see it wasn't going to thicken the way I had hoped. I ended up boiling mine while stirring almost constantly for about 10-15 minutes. It thickened up nicely due to the liquid simply boiling off, but I will probably save myself the time next time by adding a bit of cornstarch as a couple of other reviewers mentioned. It's a keeper, but you might have to play with the recipe a bit.
