Ingredients
- 2 cups fruity red wine such as Santa Maddalena, Barbera, Valpolicella, Merlot, or Zinfandel
- 1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
- About 1/2 cup sugar
- 1 lb strawberries (2 pt), trimmed, and halved if large
Cooking Instructions
Stir together wine, lemon juice, and sugar (to taste) in a bowl. Stir in strawberries and let macerate at room temperature 1 hour, then chill until cold, up to 1 hour but no longer. (Fruit will become too soft if it steeps for more than 2 hours.)
Serve berries in small bowls with some of their juices.
