Our berry patch surprised us this June, providing bowls and bowls of juicy berries. After eating our fill, we heated some into this just-a-touch-of-sweet sauce, the perfect topping for mini cheesecakes or ice cream. Drizzle it over waffles or pancakes instead of maple syrup. Or, best of all on a hot summer’s day, stir 2 tablespoons of the sauce into a pitcher full of lemonade to make the tastiest pink lemonade.
