Wild Strawberry Shortcake

Every year during the early Spring we try to make it down to Florida to enjoy the already-warm weather that I oh-so-miss in Atlanta that time of year. We hit up the beach for a day, catch a few Spring Training games and Disney for a day (because, #momlife) but my classic favorites include the Strawberry Festival in Plant City and taking the kids to pick fresh strawberries from the field.

Make it Fresh

This season I decided to incorporate sprawling springs of fresh mint from my garden (since there is SO much) and the outcome was so beautiful I just had to share. I really hope you’ll give this one a try – trust me, you’ll never go back!

A Beautiful Treat

In all honesty, one of my favorite things about this delicious treat is how beautifully aesthetic it is. I feel like a classic strawberry shortcake encompasses all things fresh, yummy, memorable, and wholesome. At the start of every spring and summer, this recipe is one my kids and I come crawling back to- all of us for its scrumptious taste, and me especially for the charm it invites into our kitchen. This is also the perfect treat to make for summer holidays like 4th of July or Memorial Day.
