Gluten-free mixed berry trifle

If you want a super easy yet very pleasing gluten-free dessert this recipe ticks all the boxes! No need to cook anything, it can be assembled in a few minutes and it can be as boozy as you want! Ideal for special occasions such as Valentine’s day, Mother’s day or anniversaries. I made it with sour cherry and brandy cookies. For a really boozy version, marinate the berries in some cherry brandy overnight, then drain. Use the brandy for the cream.
