Ingredients
- 900g strawberries
- 1 lemon
- 900g sugar
- 4 cups boiling water
- 16 cups cold water
- 180ml white vinegar
Method
Wash and hull the strawberries, and cut into quarters. Wash the lemons well, then cut into thin slices.
Place the sugar in a food-safe bucket. Add the boiling water and stir until the sugar is dissolved. Add the cold water and stir through, then add the vinegar. Add the strawberries and lemons and mix well. Place a clean tea towel over the bucket and leave to stand at room temperature for 48 hours.
Strain the mixture through a fine sieve. Pour into plastic bottles and seal immediately (fill the bottles only to the base of the necks).
Leave to stand at room temperature for about two weeks, by which time it should be a sparkling non-alcoholic strawberry “champagneâ€.
Yield: about 4.5 litres.
