🧾Ingredient Notes
Here is the pic of the ingredients to make this delicious, fresh strawberry juice. Sugar and water are not in the picture.
- Strawberries: I have used fresh ones. You can use frozen ones.
- Lemon juice: A slight tang from the lemon juice will perk up the flavor of the berries. Instead, you can use lime juice.
- Sugar: You can use your choice of sweetener.
- Water: A little amount of water is added to get the juice consistency.
👩🍳Step By Step Photo Instructions
- Wash the strawberries, remove the stems and roughly chop them. Add that into the blender along with lemon juice and sugar.
- Blend it until you get a smooth puree.
- Add chilled water and again blitz it to mix together.
- Pour into the serving glass or a pitcher.
💭Expert Tips
- Use chilled water or use a few ice cubes with room temperature water. If using ice cubes then reduce the water amount otherwise you’ll have diluted juice.
- If you prefer, you can add a pinch of salt. It brings out the strawberry flavor more. I do not add salt to control the salt intake.
- Adjust the amount of sugar depending on the sweetness of your strawberries.
- To strain or not? It depends. We do not mind having a few seeds in the sip here and there. So why waste time in doing one extra step of straining. If you prefer a super smooth strawberry juice then strain the juice using a muslin cloth over the strainer.
🥣 Storage
- As this is fresh fruit juice, it should be consumed fresh for the most nutritional benefits.
- However, you can keep it in the refrigerator, covered for up to 24 hours only. If so do stir before pouring into the serving glass.

Hi there,
Nice recipe, a good way to get a clear strawberry juice is by
Combining your strawberries (quartered) sugar I usually do 1 cup strawberries a quarter cup sugar
1/2 lemon juice and 2 cups water,
Combine this in a bowl clingfilm over the top,
Place iver a pan of boiling water for 25 mins exactly
Remove from heat and pass through sieve lined with a cloth usually muslin or the blue cloths
You have a crystal clear juice
Then with the strawberries you can make a puree or a jam with them by adding a little bit of sugar and blending
Also with the stems of the strawberries you can make a delicious tea, add unto a pan a cup of stems, 3 tablespoons of sugar and a squeeze of lemon and 1 cup of water, bring up to the boil and pass same method as before then drink
Delicious!!!
Hope you guys enjoy this alternative method
