Huckleberry Dessert Sauce

Huckleberry Dessert Sauce:  Stephani herself adventures into the mountains surrounding Colville in pursuit of the treasured wild huckleberry. The wild huckleberry cannot be cultivated domestically and grows in high elevations of Northeast Washington, as well as Idaho, British Columbia and parts of Montana. Deep purple, loaded with antioxidants and brilliant in flavor. Chef Eric makes this wild berry in to a versatile sauce that can be used for milkshakes, topping for shortcake, ice cream, cheesecake or pictured here over a scratch made Belgian waffle. (Do not forget the whip cream!)

It can also be used for fabulous and refreshing beverages: make huckleberry lemonade by combining muddled lemons, Huckleberry Dessert sauce and water or add a splash of soda for extra zing. Speaking of zing, try making a twist on an old favorite cocktail: Turn a Lynchburg lemonade into a Huckleberry Lynchburg! Fill a chimney glass with ice, a shot of Jack Daniels, Lemonade and top it with Huckleberry sauce-perfect on a hot summer day! Are you a Lemon Drop fan? After shaking and pouring a lemon drop into your sugar rimmed martini glass, drizzle a dollop of Huckleberry sauce at the edge-it will sink to the glass bottom making a beautiful layered Huckleberry Lemon Drop martini.
