Wow ! What a coincidence !! I just made a similar recipe yesterday as I was craving strawberries and cream!
I will have to try this specific recipe and see how it compares with mine. The major difference is that rather than using a liquor, I use Torani’s raspberry syrup and I am very happy with this. I do have some Chambord and will try this as a replacement!
Thank you Victoria for posting this at such an uncanny time (LOL) !
God bless !

This is so simple yet tastes incredible! The Chambord-scented cream augments the berry flavors so perfectly. I did mine with blackberries and raspberries since that was all I had at hand and it was divine. Thank you for publishing.
