Author Notes
Fresh, seasonal and ripe fruit are a dessert themselves. Nothing beats the sugary taste of biting into a super sweet strawberry and you thinking to yourself “that was a good batch!”
For this recipe I just put together in a bowl all the fruits that scream summer to me: strawberries, raspberries and blueberries.
Don’t make the error to think that the clear jelly that keeps all together is “just” jelly. I wanted to make it special by adding fizzy elderflower and a hint of lime.
When you spoon into the fruit jelly you get the floral but very subtle scent of the elderflower, where I added a bit of sugar (not much, as fresh and seasonal fruit have this already) and the fresh squeezed lime provides contrast to the sweetness of the summer cups
It is a very simple and refreshing recipe, for those days where it is too hot to turn the oven on but still like to enjoy a dessert.
Summer fruit, flowers and lime.. does it not scream summer to you? —healthy_floflo
