2. In a medium bowl combine berries, lemon juice, and remaining 1 tablespoon liqueur. Cover and let stand at room temperature for 15 minutes to develop flavors.

3. To serve, divide berry mixture among four dessert dishes, spooning any juice on top of berries. Top with ricotta mixture. Drizzle each serving with honey and, if desired, garnish with mint.
