Directions

  1. In a medium pot mix the apple juice, the sugar, the cinnamon stick, 1 teaspoon of the lemon zest, and all the lemon juice. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat. When the sugar has dissolved, add the cloves. Cook 2 minutes more uncovered.
  2. Add the frozen blueberries and strawberries. Mix well. Over high heat, bring back to a boil. Cover and lower the heat to a simmer. Cook 5 minutes. Turn off the heat and let the fruit and spices sit for 10 minutes. Before serving, remove the whole spices. Serve compote warm or at room temperature either on its own, or spooned over Almond Pound Cake or our Low-Sugar Angel Food Cake.
