A little vague about what they mean by sweetened sliced strawberries, aren’t they? I’d be inclined to macerate them if not told otherwise. There are lots of ways to do that, but assuming two pints of strawberries before slicing, I’d go with half a cup of granulated sugar, two tablespoons of honey, four tablespoons of Grand Marnier (or orange juice if you don’t like liquor), the zest of a lemon and a dash of vanilla. Mix everything together and let sit in the fridge for two hours.
