Main Ingredients

To make this strawberry orange juice, you’ll need strawberries and oranges, along with sugar, lemon juice, and mint leaves.

Save

• Strawberries: Use fresh, juicy strawberries in season for the most flavorful juice. We prefer organic strawberries to reduce exposure to pesticides.
• Although you may use perfectly ripe strawberries for juice, this recipe is a clever way to utilize that handful of slightly overripe ones. Just avoid any parts that are discolored or rotten.
• Oranges: Add a hint of acidity and enhance the juice’s sweetness. You’ll need 3 or 4 medium-sized oranges for this recipe.
• Sweetener: If the strawberries are not sufficiently sweet, you may add a sweetener of your choosing, such as maple syrup, honey, refined sugar, agave, etc.
• Lemon Juice: A squeeze of lemon adds a touch of brightness.
• Mint Leaves: It’s a simple add-in but it greatly enhances the drink’s refreshment. In addition to complementing the orange’s inherent taste, the herb balances out the drink’s flavor profile, making it more appealing.

Can Strawberries Be Used In a Juicer?

They can! However, strawberries are more difficult to juice than other fruits. Here are some suggestions for juicing strawberries effectively:

1. Remove the leaves from the top of each strawberry. 
2. Gradually add strawberries to the juicer. 
3. Alternate between feeding strawberries and the remaining ingredients into the juicer. This will facilitate the strawberry juice’s passage through the juicer. In this recipe, you might want to feed a strawberry and then an orange into the juicer.

Storing and Freezing the Leftover

• Refrigerator

This fresh strawberry orange juice is best served immediately. However, leftover juice can be refrigerated for two days if placed in an airtight container. Stir briefly prior to serving. 

Save

• Freezer

To preserve the most flavor, juice can be frozen in a freezer-safe ziploc bag, ice cube trays, or popsicle molds for up to two months. Use them in slushies and smoothies, or thaw them and drink them as juice.
