Rosé syllabub & sugared strawberries

Serves 6

Ingredients

For the rose syllabub

 125ml rosé wine

 50g golden caster sugar

 finely grated zest and juice 1 lime, plus extra lime zest to decorate

 284ml carton double cream

For the sugared strawberries

 700g strawberries

 3 tbsp golden caster sugar

 ½ bottle rosé wine (375ml)

Method

1. For the syllabub, put the wine, sugar, lime zest and juice in a bowl and chill for 1 hr.

2. About 45 mins before serving, halve any big strawberries and keep the smaller ones whole. Scatter them in a bowl and sprinkle over the sugar. Let them sit for 30 mins to release their flavoursome juices. Pour over the wine and leave for 10-15 mins.

3. Half-whip the cream for the syllabub, then gradually pour in the chilled wine mix, continuing to beat as you go, until you have a softly whipped creamy mixture that holds its shape enough to be spoonable. Serve the strawberries and their boozy juice in bowls topped with a spoonful of syllabub, and scatter over a little lime zest.
