Prep Time: 30 mins
Cook Time: 15 mins
Total Time: 45 mins
Servings: 8

Ingredients

  1. ⅓ cup water
  2. 5 tablespoons white sugar
  3. ¼ cup raspberry-flavored liqueur (such as Chambord )
  4. 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
  5. 2 cups diced nectarines
  6. 1 cup pitted and halved sweet cherries
  7. 1 cup sliced strawberries
  8. 1 cup fresh raspberries
  9. 1 cup fresh blueberries
  10. ⅓ cup heavy whipping cream
  11. 2 teaspoons white sugar
  12. 1 teaspoon raspberry-flavored liqueur (such as Chambord®)
  13. 3 tablespoons toasted slivered almonds

Instructions

  1. Stir water, 5 tablespoons sugar, 1/4 cup raspberry-flavored liqueur, and lemon juice together in a saucepan over medium-low heat. Bring mixture to a boil, reduce heat to low, and simmer, frequently stirring, until sugar dissolves completely, about 8 minutes. Set aside to cool.
  2. Mix nectarines, cherries, strawberries, raspberries, and blueberries in a large bowl. Pour cooled sugar mixture over fruit and toss gently to coat.
  3. Beat heavy whipping cream and 2 teaspoons sugar in a bowl with an electric hand mixer on high until stiff peaks form. Fold 1 teaspoon raspberry-flavored liqueur into whipped cream; spoon over fruit salad and sprinkle evenly with almonds.

No nectarines or cherries in season here now, so I used mango and blackberries. I thought I had raspberry liquor, but did not, so I subbed triple sec. 1/3 cup of whipping cream, was too small of an amount, so I doubled it. Everyone loved it.

The raspberry liqueur is subtle in both the dressing and the whipped topping. I would think some raspberry extract would work well in this if you don’t have the Chambord. Didn’t have any raspberries, so I substituted some green grapes, and I literally forgot the almonds (think they’d be a nice addition). This was a great dessert on a smokin’ hot Florida day! The summer fruits are starting to come in season, so bring on the fruit salads!!
