Ingredients

500 g strawberries, hulled and quartered
2 tbsp Sugar
3 tbsp Grand Marnier or Cointreau (or orange juice)
1 orange, finely grated zest
250 ml double cream, cold
2 tbsp Icing sugar
60 g Sour cream

Method

Toss the strawberries with the sugar, orange liqueur and half the orange zest. Leave for 30–45 min, stirring once, so they release a syrupy juice.
Whip the cream with the icing sugar to soft peaks, then fold in the sour cream and the rest of the zest.
Set aside a few strawberries for the top. Gently fold the rest, with their juice, through the cream so it streaks pink.
Spoon into glasses, top with the reserved berries and serve straight away.

Tips

Use orange juice instead of liqueur for an alcohol-free, kid-friendly version.
Crème fraîche can replace the sour cream.
