Ingredients
- 1½ cup strawberries quartered

Notes
**Warning**: alcohol may flame up when added to hot pan. If this happens, remove pan from heat source until the flame is gone, then place back on the stove.
Preserves: use any jam or jelly you have at home. Honey would be another great alternative.
