Very little needs to be done with summer fruit to make it extraordinary, but as your farmstand strawberries start to soften, a quick dip in citrus liqueur and sugar is a perfect second act. Boozy, macerated berries top vanilla ice cream in these simple sundaes from Anna Watson Carl of The Yellow Table blog.

Ingredients

1 lb. fresh strawberries, hulled and quartered
¼ cup Grand Marnier
¼ cup fresh orange juice
¼ cup turbinado sugar
