This is my tried & tested dinner party dessert that I have been rolling out for years. It has that lovely combo of fresh sweet strawberries macerated in coconut sugar and balsamic vinegar to give them a lovely caramelised taste. Served with coconut yoghurt in a flashy glass will have your guests swooning with satisfaction. Fresh, healthy & packed with nutrition. Gluten & dairy free. Serves 4.

7 Tbs of coconut sugar
1/2 Cup balsamic vinegar

Fresh Mint (optional)
1 Cup pan roasted walnuts & almonds chopped (optional)
Method
