Peaches Grand Mariner
with Strawberries
3 medium to large firm peaches, pitted and cut into wedges
2 cups strawberries, stem removed and cut in half
1 tablespoon brown sugar
The juice of 1 orange, about 2 tablespoons
1 lemon cut in half
1/4 cup Grand Mariner 

In a medium size sauce pan, over medium high heat, melt the brown sugar in the orange juice & juice from one of the halves of lemon 

Reduce the mixture for about 30 seconds so it become syrupy; add the peaches and sauté on each side for about 30 seconds to 1 minute (depending of their firmness) 

Off heat; add the Grand Mariner
Return to the heat and flame the peach/Grand Mariner mixture until all of the liquor has burned off & the sauce thickens, about 25 to 35 seconds 

Add the remaining juice of the other half of lemon & the strawberries, stir to combine
Remove from the heat & cool 

Yields about 4 to 5 cups
Refrigerate until ready to use
Serve warm or chilled with ice cream or with
