Step-by-step instructions

1. 1

   Tip the strawberries into a large bowl. Splash over the Cointreau, add the orange zest and sift in the icing sugar, then give everything a really good mix. Cover, then leave for 1 hr or more for the juices to become syrupy and the strawberries to soak up some of the alcohol.

2. 2

   To serve, scatter the mint leaves over the strawberries and give them one more good stir, then spoon into individual glass dishes.
