Ingredients
-
1 (750-ml) bottle semi-dry Riesling
-
1/3 cup granulated sugar, or more to taste
-
1 tarragon sprig
-
1/2 cup dried apricots (preferably California) (about 4 ounces)
-
1 pound fresh strawberries, hulled (halved lengthwise if large)
-
Unsweetened whipped cream, for serving
-
Fresh tarragon leaves, for garnish
Directions
-
Fill a large bowl with ice and water; place a large heatproof bowl on top. Stir together wine, sugar, and tarragon sprig in a large saucepan; bring to a boil over medium. Add apricots, and cook 2 minutes. Add strawberries; reduce heat to medium-low, and cook until fruit just softens, about 3 minutes. Transfer fruit mixture to bowl set over ice-water bath, and let stand until cool, about 45 minutes.

Serve fruit and wine mixture in glasses topped with unsweetened whipped cream and garnished with tarragon leaves.
