Have you ever wondered what would work as the perfect topping for ice cream, waffles, yogurt, and so much more? One of our favorite picks is a sauce with a base of cooked berries, thanks to the amazing combination of sweet and tangy that it brings to the table. So if you’re thinking about branching out and trying to make your own version of this tasty sauce at home, here’s how you can do it!

Ingredients

  • ½ cup blackberries
  • ½ cup blueberries
  • ½ cup raspberries
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice
  • ½ tablespoon sugar
  • 1 ½ tablespoons water

Instructions

The first thing you’ll want to do is add all of the ingredients of your sauce to a medium saucepan on your stove. Once they’re all in and mixed together thoroughly, turn up the heat to medium-high and bring to a simmer. As the mixture is warming, constantly mix with a wooden spoon in order to ensure that things do not stick or burn to the saucepan.

Once the mix is simmering, reduce the heat to medium-low and allow to cook until it has reached a mildly runny but not completely liquid texture. Allow to cool and serve fresh on whatever food you would like! If you want to save this sauce or have some leftover, you can put it in a seal-tight jar and store refrigerated for up to a week. Enjoy!
