Preparation
Process berries and their juices in a food processor or blender until smooth; transfer to a large bowl and set aside.
Pour the lemon juice and orange juice into a small saucepan. Sprinkle gelatin over top. Let stand 5 min until softened. Heat over low heat, stirring until gelatin completely dissolves. Stir into berry mixture.
Refrigerate for 1 to 1 1/2 hours or until partially set, stirring occasionally.
Beat cream with sugar and almond extract until soft peaks form. Fold into partially set fruit mixture. Spoon into parfait glasses or a bowl. Refrigerate for 1 to 1 1/2 hours or until set.
Before serving, garnish with additional whipped cream and fresh mint.
