Strawberry Coupes

Pick off stems, wash and thoroughly drain a pint fine, fresh red strawberries, place in a bowl with two ounces fine sugar, a tablespoon each kirsch, maraschino and rum, and half teaspoon vanilla essence, then turn strawberries in seasoning and let infuse until required. Prepare a pint (only) vanilla ice cream, evenly divide strawberries and liquor in six coupes or champagne glasses, then divide vanilla ice cream in coupes, neatly smooth surface to dome-like shape and serve.
