From EatingWell:  July/August 1993

Cooked blueberries provide a base for a sauce of whole fresh berries. Serve over lemon sorbet or pound cake.

About 3 cups | Active Time: 20 minutes | Total Time: 1 hour (including chilling time)

Ingredients

• 1 pint blueberries, divided
• 1/4 cup sugar
• 1 1/2 teaspoons lemon juice
• 1 tablespoon water
• 2 tablespoons eau-de-vie de framboise, or Chambord (optional)
• 1 cup raspberries

Preparation

1. Combine 1 1/2 cups blueberries with the sugar, lemon juice and water in a large heavy saucepan. Cook over medium-low heat, stirring constantly, until the berries pop and a sauce forms, 5 to 10 minutes.
2. Remove the pan from the heat and stir in framboise (or Chambord), if using. Transfer the sauce to a bowl, cover and chill until cold.
3. Just before serving, stir in the remaining blueberries and raspberries.
