Directions

  1. 1

    Puree half of the strawberries in a blender. Chop the remaining strawberries and set four aside for garnish.

  2. 2

    Whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form. Gently fold in the strawberry puree and crumbled meringue. Add the chopped strawberries and the ginger syrup.

  3. 3

    Divide the mixture equally into four chilled wine glasses. Garnish with the reserved strawberries and a sprig of fresh mint.

💡 Chef's Tip

Prepare the meringue and chill the glasses in the refrigerator before assembly. For extra flavor, let the strawberries marinate for a few minutes with the syrup. Serve immediately to preserve the contrast of textures.
