How to Make Strawberry Cabernet Sauce

  1. In a small saucepan, combine ¾ cup Cabernet Sauvignon and ½ cup granulated sugar.
  2. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally.
  3. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until the mixture reduces to about ¼ cup (approximately 10-12 minutes), stirring occasionally to prevent sticking.
  4. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
  5. In a blender or food processor, combine the reduced wine mixture, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, and 1 cup of sliced strawberries.
  6. Blend until completely smooth.
  7. Pour the pureed mixture into a medium bowl.
  8. Coarsely chop the remaining ½ cup strawberries.
  9. Add the chopped strawberries, 1 teaspoon Cabernet Sauvignon, and 1 tablespoon lemon juice to the pureed mixture.
  10. Gently stir to combine. Serve immediately or chill for later. Enjoy!
