This sophisticated ice cream sundae is worthy of serving to dinner guests. Juicy strawberries, tangy balsamic, and fresh basil pair perfectly with creamy vanilla ice cream.

Yields: 1 sundae
Ingredients
3/4 cup hulled and sliced strawberries
1 tsp sugar
4-5 large basil leaves, sliced into thin ribbons
vanilla ice cream
1-2 Tbsp balsamic reduction (storebought, or lightly simmer 1/4 cup balsamic vinegar uncovered until reduced to 1/3 of original volume, about 20 minutes)
Instructions
First, make the balsamic reduction if you don't have any pre-made - see notes above.
Mix strawberries with sugar and set aside for about 5 minutes to macerate.
Once strawberries are nice and juicy, layer then in an ice cream dish with the basil and vanilla ice cream. Top with balsamic reduction.
Enjoy!
