    Ingredients in Strawberry Juice

    • Strawberries – sweet, ripe, in-season berries will make the sweetest, most flavorful juice. If you’re using out-of-season berries without much flavor add a bit of lemon or lime. Thawed frozen strawberries can also be used.
    • Water – I like to dilute the juice with a 1:1 ratio of water for the perfect consistency
    • Sugar – (optional) You can add sugar or another sweetener if using out-of-season berries or if you like a sweeter juice. You can also use a liquid sweetener (like honey or agave) or a keto sweetener (like erythritol).

    Other optional ingredients:

    • Pinch of salt – brings out the flavor
    • Lemon or Lime Juice – add some freshly squeezed lemon or lime juice to intensify the flavor or if you’d like your juice a little tarter.

    How to make Strawberry Juice

    In a juicer:

    To make strawberry juice in the juicing machine, clean and hull the strawberries, then press them through the tube. You can drink the juice as is or dilute with an equal amount of water and add sugar to taste.

    How to juice with a blender:

    • Clean and hull the strawberries
    • Process in the blender until pureed
    • Add water and sugar to taste and briefly blend again to combine

    You can also use a handheld immersion blender. Just blend the berries in a deep enough bowl so that they don’t overflow.

    Strawberry Juice tips:

    • You can serve the juice full strength or dilute it with water. I like a 1:1 ratio of juice to water. (For every cup of pureed strawberries, add 1 cup of water.) You can dilute the juice to your taste.
    • You can also dilute the strawberry juice with sparkling water or coconut water
    • You can serve the pure strawberry juice as is, or you can boost the flavor with sugar or other sweeteners (such as agave or keto-friendly erythritol), a pinch of salt, lime, or lemon juice.
    • Adjust the amount of sugar or sweetener used depending on how sweet your berries are.
    • My blender makes a perfectly smooth juice, but if you would like an even thinner juice with no pulp, strain the juice through a fine mesh strainer, cheesecloth, or a nut bag.

    Variations and add-ins:

    • Strawberry Kiwi Juice – add 1-2 peeled kiwi with the strawberries to puree.
    • Strawberry Orange Juice – thin with orange juice instead of water.
    • Strawberry Banana Juice – add a banana with the strawberries to puree.
    • Orange Strawberry Banana Juice – add a banana with the strawberries and thin with orange juice.
    • Strawberry Acai Juice – add 1 teaspoon acai powder when pureeing the strawberries.
    • Strawberry Watermelon Juice – puree watermelon with the strawberries. Because of the high water content of watermelon, additional water may not be needed.
    • Strawberry Peach Juice – thin with peach juice or add peach chunks when pureeing the strawberries
    • Strawberry Apple Juice – thin with apple juice or add apple chunks when pureeing the strawberries
    • Sparkling Strawberry Juice – dilute with sparkling water
    • Frozen Strawberry Juice Slushie – add ice cubes to the puree and blend.
    • Strawberry Pineapple Juice – thin with pineapple juice or add pineapple chunks when pureeing the strawberries
    • Strawberry Mango Juice - thin with mango juice or add mango chunks when pureeing the strawberries
    • Strawberry Popsicles – pour into popsicle molds and freeze. I like to add sugar and lime juice to the mix.

    How to store:

    Strawberry Juice will keep in the refrigerator for 2-3 days.

    How to freeze:

    Freeze strawberry juice in ice cube trays or in plastic freezer bags for 2-3 months. You can use them as flavored ice cubes, add frozen to slushies and smoothies, or thaw to use as juice.

    FAQs

    Can you juice a strawberry?

    Yes, strawberries are easy to juice either in a juicer, in a blender, or with a handheld immersion blender.

    Can you use a blender to juice?

    Yes, a blender is a good alternative to a juicing machine. Depending on the fruit, there may be some pulp, but that can be strained out with a strainer. The advantage is that a blender is much easier to clean than a juicer.

    Can you juice frozen fruit?

    Yes, frozen fruit juices well. Let the fruit thaw and be sure to include any of the juice that comes out during the thawing process. Freezing and thawing fruit breaks down the cell walls allowing the water held in the cells to come out easily. That’s why you’ll naturally see juice (and mushier fruit) when you freeze and thaw it.

      Well, you can't get much easier than this. Love any kind of fresh fruit juice, but have never made strawberry. You make it look irresistible. Just happen to have a couple pounds of strawberries in the fridge. Thanks!
