Spoon the strawberries into a dish, and heat the marinating juices.  Pour over strawberries.  For additional fun, heat 1/8 c red wine, ignite and pour over the berries.  Serve immediately.

Yes, but probably leave off the wine ignition!  Best when eaten within two hours of marinating, so don’t wait too long.
