Fresh Berry Compote

Fresh berry compote is about as simple as summer drinks get: a short ingredient list, barely any time at the stove, and a result that works just as well warm on a cool day as it does chilled in the heat. Unlike store-bought juice, homemade compote has no preservatives, and the amount of sugar is entirely up to you.

Compote turns out well with pretty much any seasonal berry — strawberries, raspberries, currants, cherries — whether used alone or mixed together. Currants and cherries lean tarter, while raspberries and strawberries bring natural sweetness and a brighter aroma. Mixing a few kinds together usually gives a more balanced flavor than a compote made from just one.
