“This is a unique, gourmet way to serve this fantastic summer fruit! The balsamic vinegar brings out the berries' beautiful color and truly enhances their flavor. Great served with a simple pound cake, over vanilla ice cream, or simply by themselves.” - by HOOLIE

My guests and I loved this, especially ov..." See moreer vanilla ice cream. The juice made a great ice cream topping! Will definitely make this again!!!"
