Servings 4
Ingredients
- 2 cups fresh mixed berries (strawberries, blackberries, raspberries) plus more for garnish
- 1 tbsp sugar
- 1 cup heavy whipping cream
- splash Kentucky bourbon
- honey, to taste
- mint leaves for garnish
- 4 small biscuits, baked before hand (optional)
Instructions
- Slice strawberries. Mix berries in small bowl with sugar and let rest while you prep the other ingredients.
- In a stand mixer with the whisk attachment, whisk cream on medium speed until stiff peaks have formed. Add a splash of bourbon and mix in. (You can also add a tablespoon of powdered sugar to the cream, but we prefer the cream unsweetened.)
- Place biscuits in the bottom of 4 small glass bowls or cups. Spoon about 1/2 cup of berries into each bowl.
- Top with cream and a few leftover berries. Drizzle with honey to taste and finish with a sprig of mint. It's the Kentucky Derby after all!
