Preparation

Step 1

Combine 2 half-pints raspberries, all the blueberries, sugar and 3/4 c water in a saucepan and bring to a boil. Lower the heat and cook uncovered over medium-low heat, stirring occasionally, for 10-12 minutes. The juice will become a syrup and the berries will be slightly cooked. Off the heat, stir in the remaining half-pint of raspberries and the framboise, if desired. Set aside until warmed through.

Place about 3/4 c of warm berries in each bowl and top w/a scoop of ice cream.
