Honey; preferable berry- blossom honey |
| 2 |
tb |
Fresh lime juice |
| 2 |
|
Large sprigs fresh mint |
| 6 |
|
Smaller sprigs for garnish |
| 2 1/2 |
pt |
Mixed fresh berries; such as red or golden raspberries, blueberries, tiny strawberries, blackberries, pitted Bing or Queen Anne cherries |

Chilled Champagne; or other sparkling white wine |
INSTRUCTIONS
In a small saucepan, combine the honey, lime juice and large mint sprigs;
warm over low heat just until the honey melts. Remove from the heat and let
steep for 5 minutes; discard the mint. Place the fruit in a large bowl,
pour the honey mixture over and stir gently to combine. Divide the berry
mixture among 6 individual goblets or dessert dishes and refrigerate until
ready to serve, up to 1 hour. Just before serving, pour the Champagne over
the fruit. Garnish each serving with a sprig of mint and serve. Serves 6.
COMMENTS: Nonalcoholic champagne, such as Ariel Brut, can be substituted
for the real thing. Any combination of berries or cherries (or nectarines
or peaches, for that matter) can be used. Several colors make the prettiest
presentation, but single-berry ambrosia is delicious too.
