Notes
Sugar Substitute - You can easily replace all of added sweetener in the recipe by juicing 3 cups (around 3 small) of sweet apples (washed and sliced thickly) along with the strawberries. The best apples to use include Fuji, Gala, Ambrosia, or Juici. This method will give you more liquid, so you will have about three extra ounces in the end. Feel free to add less or more apples to your taste preference.
Fresh Vs. Frozen - If you only have frozen strawberries, thaw them overnight in the fridge. There’s no need to slice them before juicing because they will be extra soft. If you wish to save a step, you can even buy sweetened frozen strawberries to use in this recipe. They tend to be very sweet, so you may want to use a small container of fresh (or unsweetened) strawberries along with them.
