Puree strawberries with 1 Tbsp of sugar in a blender until very smooth. Press the mix through a sieve into a bowl, discarding the seeds. Remove 1 cup and set aside for the Panna Cotta. Reserve the remainder for top of desert.

Slice 1/2 cup of strawberries and pour 1 ounce of strawberry or peach liqueur over them, gently mix and set aside to macerate.
