Ingredients
- 75 g dried blueberries
- 75 g dried cranberries
- 100 ml limoncello , plus extra to serve
- 400 g mincemeat

- Whip the double cream to soft peaks. Fold in the candied peel and ginger, then finely grate in the lime and clementine zest. Spike the cream with a few drops of the clementine juice.
