Springtime Charoset

2 cups fresh strawberries, cored and cut in half
¼ cup freshly squeezed blood orange juice
Zest of ½ lemon
¼ cup honey
1 tablespoon dried lavender (optional)
½ cup toasted, shelled unsalted pistachios, chopped coarsely
1 cup blood orange sections
Several mint leaves cut into thin strips

Place the strawberries in a medium bowl. Add the blood orange juice and the lemon zest. Allow the mixture to macerate (marinate).

Heat the honey in a small saucepan. Add the lavender and remove from the heat. Cool the honey mixture. Strain out the lavender and discard.

Lightly mash the strawberries with a potato masher. Add the honey and the remaining ingredients. Stir to combine.
