Ingredients

  • 2 pounds of strawberries, washed and chopped
  • 2 cups of sugar
  • 3-4 cups of water (filtered)

Instructions

  • To make strawberry juice, add the strawberries and sugar to a bowl and mix thoroughly.
  • Cover the bowl and refrigerate for 12-24 hours.
  • Pour the contents of the bowl into a saucepan over medium heat.
  • Bring the mixture to a boil, then lower heat to a simmer for 15-20 minutes.
  • Pour the mixture through a strainer, leaving the strawberry fiber behind.
  • Press the strawberries to release as much juice as possible.
  • Store the strawberry juice in a glass jar or bottle.
  • To serve, mix 1/4 cup of this concentrated juice into a glass and then add water.
  • Stir thoroughly, adding more syrup for extra sweetness, if necessary. Serve the juice chilled and enjoy!

Notes

Add sugar in accordance to the sweetness of the strawberries. Use less sugar if the strawberries are sweet. You can add rock salt to the juice along with the sugar to give it an interesting taste. Instead of refrigerating it or using chilled water, you can use ice cubes. This way, you will save a lot of time as well.
