Strawberry juice or strawberry smoothie
by Erika Kerekes June-22-2012
Whether you call it juice or a smoothie, this velvety-smooth fresh strawberry drink will dress up your next picnic. If you don't have a professional-strength blender, you might want to strain the finished product before serving.
Ingredients
- 3 pints fresh strawberries, rinsed, hulls on
- 1 lime, juice only (about 1/8 cup)
- 1/4 cup fresh mint leaves
- 3 Tbsp granulated sugar (optional)
- 1 1/2 cups water (or more to achieve desired texture)
Instructions
Put all ingredients in a high-powered blender. Blend on high until completely smooth. Add more water as needed to achieve desired texture. I like my strawberry juice the consistency of whole milk, but you may want yours thinner or thicker.Chill at least 1 hour before serving.
