Nova – you can let it sit for about an hour so the berries and the liqueur blend well together. But overnight is definitely not needed; I’d say max a couple hours.
does this need to sit over night or for at least 4 hours before serving?
the color looks so sensual! I could just keep drinking it:)

Sounds like a great recipe… I hope it’s not too late in the year to find some Rhubarb. I’ve noticed that a lot of my local stores haven’t been carrying it.
