This striking sundae is inspired by a riff on the Eton mess we like at Runner Up in Brooklyn. The no-churn strawberry sorbet is plenty delicious on its own thanks to a good splash of Campari that imparts a hint of pleasant bitterness to the sweet sorbet. Adding a pillowy bed of tangy Greek yogurt whipped cream, crisp shards of vanilla meringue, and juicy berries turns it into a thrillingly unconventional sundae. Make the sorbet and meringue shards ahead so all you have to do when it’s time to serve is whip the cream and macerate the berries.
