Verrines of Limoncello Syllabub With Lemon Sugar and Raspberries image

Mama mia! Limoncello syllabub with lemon sugar is a delicously light and airy dessert with an Italian tipple. It's the ideal easy no-cook dessert recipe to have up your sleeve should unexpected food loving guests turn up, or to impress a new date. Verrines are French, little appetisers or desserts served in shot glasses and they are very much in vogue at present! Limoncello is an Italian lemon liqueur best served straight from the freezer. Find it in off licences, Italian delis and some larger supermarkets. (Recipe from Delicious.)
