A sweet-sour syrup made with raspberry vinegar makes a wonderful contrast to ripe summer berries. Here, we've used a combination of strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, and blackberries, but you can use whatever berries look best at the market.

Instructions

Step 1

In a medium bowl, mash 2 cups berries with the sugar, lemon juice, and salt; let sit for one and a half hours. Strain through a fine-mesh sieve into a clean bowl, pressing on the fruit to extract as much liquid as possible. Stir in vinegar and drizzle over remaining berries in a serving bowl. Toss with mint and serve immediately.
