Red, White and Blue Sundaes for 4th of July

Nothing says summer like an ice cream sundae. I’d suggest strawberry and vanilla with blueberry sauce for 4th of July – though technically this would be a pink, white a blue sundae. It’s so delicious that I think we’ll get away with it. Cherry and white chocolate ice cream with blueberry sauce would be good too, now I think about it.

Consider providing whipped cream – from a can has its own charm too – and little dishes of red, white and blue M&Ms, sprinkles, white chocolate shavings and maraschino cherries for people to get creative with.

Blueberry sauce

• Blend the jam, blueberries and sugar until smooth
• Tip into a saucepan and heat in for a few minutes until runny enough to pour
• Add the balsamic vinegar to turn the sauce a deeper blue and to bring out the sweetness of the blueberries
