FAQs
Can I use other types of berries instead of strawberries?
Yes, you can use blueberries, raspberries, or blackberries, but keep in mind that smaller berries may soak up the rosé faster and require less marinating time.
What happens if I marinate the strawberries longer than one hour?
Marinating longer can make the strawberries softer and more infused with wine flavor, but marinating beyond 2 hours may cause them to become too mushy and lose their fresh texture.
