1 tbs brown sugar
1 tbs vanilla extract
Splash orange liqueur
(optional)
2 tbs honey
1 tbs orange zest
Pinch salt
Powdered sugar to
dust (optional)

1. Wash the
strawberries. Cut into slices and place then into a bowl. Add the liqueur and

yolks, milk, sugar, vanilla, liqueur, honey, salt and orange zest. Whisk well.
