Ingredients

  • 1 cup port wine
  • 2 dozen store-bought vanilla meringues

Method

  • In a saucepan, over medium heat, simmer the port wine until reduced by 3/4, about 30 minutes.
  • Cool completely.
  • Syrup should be thick but still liquid when cooled.
  • Put a cooling rack onto a parchment lined sheet pan to catch any drips.
  • Using a small clean paint brush, paint a swirl line on half each meringue.
  • Arrange them on cooling rack and let them dry overnight.
  • Carefully pile the meringues into a large wide lipped vase or centerpiece of your choice.
  • Syrup will still be sticky on meringues so be careful not to touch it or over handle the meringues.
