Instructions

1. Put the strawberries in a saucepan, add the water, bring to the boil and simmer for about 15 minutes on a low heat, stirring occasionally. Cover and let the mixture stand on the switched off hotplate for about 1 hour. Drain the strawberries and squeeze out a little more in the sieve, then filter the juice through a hair sieve again to catch all residues.
2. Heat this clear juice in a larger saucepan, add the sugar and lemon juice, bring to the boil and reduce to a syrup. Fill prepared bottles or twist-off glasses with the hot syrup and close immediately. Put the jars on the lid for 5 minutes.
3. The specified amount is sufficient for approx. 7 glasses of 200 ml each.
