Elegance meets ease in this iconic Berries Romanoff recipe. Think berries and whipped cream but an elevated edition with a tangy twist of sour cream and a sophisticated splash of Brandy. Fresh, peak season, mixed California berries blend together with a sprinkle of sugar and warm Brandy, then get spooned over a luxuriously smooth, honey sweetened, brandied blend of sour cream and whipped cream.

Instructions
Add the mixed berries, 2 TBSP of Brandy, and 1 TBSP granulated sugar to a large mixing bowl, and gently toss together. Set aside.
Whisk the sour cream, honey and remaining tablespoon of Brandy together in a small bowl.
In a separate bowl, whisk the heavy cream until it starts to thicken and add the remaining tablespoon of sugar. Then whip until thick, creamy and billowy.
Fold the whipped cream into the sour cream mixture until well blended. If you're making the dish ahead, pop it into the fridge until you're ready to serve.
To serve, divide the berries among 6 individual parfait cups, champagne coupes or small bowls, leaving some to add dot the top. Then add generous dollops of the whipped cream mixture to each bowl and top with remaining berries and a drizzle of the syrup that collected at the bottom of the bowl. Serve immediately and feel fancy!
