How to Make Mixed Berry Sauce

  1. In a heavy-bottomed saucepan, whisk together 1/2 cup water, 1 cup granulated sugar, 2 tablespoons cornstarch, 1 teaspoon almond extract, 1 tablespoon brandy (optional), and 1 teaspoon lemon zest until completely smooth.
  2. Gently stir in 4 cups frozen mixed berries (or 4 cups of your favorite berries).
  3. Cook over medium heat, stirring frequently, until the mixture comes to a rolling boil. This should take about 5-7 minutes.
  4. Reduce heat to low and simmer for 20-30 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the sauce has thickened to your desired consistency. The sauce will continue to thicken as it cools.
  5. Remove from heat and let cool completely. Once cooled, refrigerate for at least 1 hour to allow the flavors to meld. This will also further thicken the sauce.
