Dark Fruit

Serves 2 as Dessert.

Dark Fruit

This simple recipe was taught to me by a French woman, and it is surprisingly delicious.

1 Cup Fresh Blueberries

Red wine, any variety

Sugar

Choose two small bowls and make this dessert before you begin your meal.

Divide the blueberries into the two bowls after washing them thoroughly and removing any stems or broken berries.

Pour red wine into the bowl until it just comes to the top of the berries.

If you wish, you may add just a bit of sugar, perhaps 1/2 to 1 teaspoonful, but don't mix it up.

By the time you are ready for dessert, the blueberries will have released a wonderful flavor into the wine which makes for a refreshing dessert.

This dessert could be served with a glass of sparkling water, and it can be made with any kind of berry.
