Ingredients:

Serving

1 pint fresh blueberries
1/4 cup sugar , plus 1 tbsp. (or substitute)
1 tsp fresh lemon juice
1/4 tsp ground cinnamon
1/4 tsp freshly grated nutmeg
1/4 tsp ground ginger
1 cup whipping cream
1/4 tsp vanilla
2 tbsp crystallized ginger, finely chopped
4 sprigs mint, for garnish

Directions:

In a large saucepan, combine the blueberries, 1/4 cup sugar (or sugar substitute), and lemon juice.
Cook, stirring all the while, over low heat until the sugar dissolves and the berries start to give off liquid- about 2 minutes Increase heat to medium-high and simmer until the berries have broken down- about 4 minutes.
Stir in cinnamon, nutmeg and ground ginger.
Strain the berry mixture through a fine mesh sieve, pushing hard on the solids to extract as much liquid as possible.
Discard the solids- (You will have 1 to 1-1/2 cups liquid, depending on the juiciness of the berries).
Refrigerate until well chilled, at least 1 hours.
Chill 4 parfait, or tall wine glasses (use champagne flutes, if you have them, as an impressive touch for a formal dinner).
In a large bowl, whip the cream with the remaining tbsp sugar (or sugar substitute) and the vanilla, until stiff.
Stir 1/4 of the blueberry mixture into the cream to lighten and gently fold in the rest of the mixture.
Spoon into the chilled glasses, cover, and refrigerate at least 2 hours, and up to 8 hours.
Just before serving, garnish with a pinch of chopped ginger and a sprig of mint.
