  • First, in a bowl, we mix the sour cream, brown sugar, and orange liqueur. Squeeze the orange and mix with the liqueur. Set aside.
  • In another bowl, we whip the cream using a whisk; once it has thickened, we add the white sugar. We continue beating until it reaches a firm consistency. We add the sour cream mixture and continue mixing until we achieve a homogeneous sauce.
  • Wash the strawberries, then remove the stems and cut them in half. Reserve some whole for decoration.
  • We plate by layering strawberries and Romanoff sauce alternately in a glass.
  • We decorate with a few mint leaves and serve.
