Ingredients

  • 1 cup fresh raspberries
  • 1 cup fresh blackberries, broken in half
  • 1 cup fresh strawberries, hulled and quartered
  • 1 teaspoon lemon zest
  • 1 teaspoon freshly squeezed lemon juice
  • 1/4 cup white sugar
  • 1 cup chilled heavy cream
  • 1/4 cup creme fraiche
  • 1 tablespoon white sugar
  • 1/4 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

Directions

  1. Place raspberries, blackberries, and strawberries in a bowl. Add lemon zest, lemon juice, and 1/4 cup sugar. Stir until sugar is mixed with fruit and juices begin to form. Cover and refrigerate until chilled, about 1 hour.
