But this is not a reason to refuse to make strawberry juice.

Sort through the strawberries and discard the green ones. They will only give acid, but they still have no aroma.

Wash the berries and puree them with a blender or wooden masher. Heat the strawberries on the stove to help the juice separate, but do not bring to a boil. Place the strawberry pulp in a fine-mesh sieve and grind the berries.

You will get a fairly thick and flavorful puree. Add sugar to the water and stir the juice well.
