Sweet Red Currant Syrup and stemmed scarlet berries enliven all summer fruits. Peaches, nectarines, plums, strawberries, raspberries—all will be enhanced by the addition of this brilliant compote. The sugary currants will last for weeks in the refrigerator, so keep them handy for quick and special desserts. The following should be enough to add tart-sweet flavor and color to about 8 servings of fresh fruit.
