Strawberry Ice Cubes
Prepare the strawberry fruit salad
Quickly wash the strawberries, then cut them into even pieces, lightly sugar them (adjust the amount based on your taste and the flavor of the available fruit) and squeeze lemon juice over them. Mix everything.
Blend or mash part of the strawberry pulp and its juice with a fork.
Pour the mash into the ice cube trays, or for a more liquid result, only the juice. Place the filled ice cube tray in the freezer.
Strawberry and lemon pair wonderfully, also try the lemon juice ice cubes.
