Treat your ingredients with care...

  • Strawberries — Choose ripe and fragrant strawberries for the best flavor. If they are not sweet enough, you can sprinkle a little extra sugar on top before serving.

Tips & Tricks

  • For a more intense flavor, you can let the strawberries macerate in the wine mixture overnight.
  • Serve Fragole al Vino Rosso with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream for an extra indulgent treat.
  • If you prefer a smoother texture, you can blend a portion of the macerated strawberries and wine syrup together before serving.
  • Experiment with different types of red wine to find your favorite flavor combination.
  • Garnish with fresh mint leaves for a pop of color and added freshness.

Serving advice

Serve Fragole al Vino Rosso chilled in individual dessert bowls or glasses. Spoon the macerated strawberries into each serving dish and drizzle with the wine syrup. For an elegant touch, garnish with a sprig of fresh mint.

Presentation advice

To create an appealing presentation, arrange the macerated strawberries in a circular pattern in the serving dish. Drizzle the wine syrup over the strawberries, allowing it to pool at the bottom. Place a sprig of fresh mint on top for a vibrant and aromatic finishing touch.
