Get ready for summer with this tasty treat. Sweet strawberries and tart lemons make for a perfect refreshing pairing.
6 c. cleaned and hulled strawberries, fresh or frozen
4 c. fresh squeezed lemon juice
6 c. sugar
Ladle hot concentrate into a hot pint or half pint jar leaving 1/4” headspace. Remove air bubbles. Wipe jar rim. Center lid and apply band to fingertip tight.
Process for 15 minutes in boiling water or steam canner, adjusting for altitude as follows:
1,001-3,000 ft ~ increase processing time by 5 minutes
3,001-6,000 ft ~ increase processing time by 10 minutes
6,001-8,000 ft ~ increase processing time by 15 minutes
8,001-10,000 ft ~ increase processing time by 20 minutes
Allow jars to rest undisturbed for 12-24 hours. Remove bands, check seals, wash and label jars. Store in a cool dark dry place.

This is a family favorite here (try it with blackberries!). I do half fresh squeezed and half bottled lemon juice and it works well.
Blackberries sound amazing 🤩
Raspberries too! Looks delicious!
@@carol-thriftychichousewife6231 I made a batch with blueberries and a year later it turned into chunky blueberry watery gel.
Can’t wait to make it.
This looks delicious! Says summer!!
this sounds delish
Oh man this is going to be a must make here soon!!!! Thank you!!!!
Just made this! So good!
Yum i cant wait to try it
Definitely want to try this
Another fantastic tutorial!! Going to make that soon, thank you!

I just love that pop sound 😍
I so need to try this.
Love this idea. I’m in. Thank you so much. (You had me at Prosecco lol)
oh YUM I SEE THIS IN MY SUMMER THANK YOU
Going to make this and put up on my pantry shelves.
Thank You, Carol 🍓🍋
I am def gonna make that
Trying this over the weekend ♥️
On my way to the store for some frozen strawberries! Thank you again for a great recipe!!!
YUMO!!!! I'm going to make some of this 😋THANK YOU!!
I just made this yesterday, sooo good!!
Thanks for the sugar sub links! I’m on keto and that helps.
This looks sooo good! Going to try it with club soda for a sparkling drink!
What a beautiful looking recipe. My strawberries are getting all their flowers, and hopefully in a few weeks ill have berries to try this!
Merci beaucoup
yummy, I;m making that
Made these a couple months ago turned out beautiful 😍😋
Will be doing this very soon!!! Will post on Facebook !!!
Wow! My daughter is graduating from college in a few weeks and I’m having a pool party for her. This will be perfect! Thanks!
oh my gosh that looks so good and your idea about adding to some alcohol sounds incredible!! thank you so much for sharing this
Made this last summer. It's so yummy! Using frozen berries is a great idea.
Oh yum
Also... this is going to be delish. Grab some Prosecco Carol, I'm ready for a visit!
I never realized you could make drink concentrates like this! I watched another video earlier on canning iced tea concentrate and I've been surfing videos all day now! Thanks for the video, look forward to trying it!
Someone recommended your channel to me. I looked through your videos and decided to subscribe. I'm sure I'll be watching many of your old videos. Even if the recipe is in a book, watching someone do it helps.
I have to have the Ball Canning book! Being a newbie I only have the USDA book thus far ... on my way to B&N website NOW! Beautiful video ... thank you Carol.
I just made this, the jars look so pretty & it taste so good! Next jar I will try with GingerAle
Just made this. Used the extra and combined with one can of selzer water. Delish! Better than soda stream!
Never tried canning concentrated drink mixes, looks good Carol, I am going to try this. Funny how when two people go through canning books they never notice the same things, but wonder why they missed that when they see it made.
I had 1/2 a bag of 6 month old Costco strawberries and my friend brought by a bag of lemons today, so guess what I am making tomorrow. Great video and I love all the additional ideas at the end.
Hmm i just happen to have frozen strawberries in the freezer.. 💐.. and u have givem me some great use idead..
Hello again I’m going to be making this juice again this spring. What I make last year summer I shared with some people in our apartment complex, they really enjoyed it.❤
Just made some limoncello. Now I know what to do with the juice. Thanks for the great idea!
Yum!
I love fresh strawberries because the hulls go into ice cube trays with filtered water. I freeze that and give to my chickens. They love it.
Made this today, and looks great, I can't wait to try it. Only thing is,I only got 6 pints like you said you did. I'm sure it will be delicious though! Thanks for showing this recipe.☺️👍
I just made this and also used frozen strawberries in addition to washing my lemons and cutting into quarters then I put them through my juicer. It worked really well! This is so delicious and will make a wonderful gift. Thanks for sharing!
I made this today...so tasty...my only adjustment was, Aldis has a frozen Berry Blend which has strawberries, blueberries, raspberries in it...Wonderful!!
😋 yum
Haven't made this yet but this is the year!! 🥰
4 months later I'm making it! 🤣🥰 it's really for my husband, I hope he likes it! 🥹
Can’t wait to make this ahead of time and use it for my daughter’s graduation party!
Yes! It would be great for that! Congratulations to your daughter 🎊💕
@@carol-thriftychichousewife6231 thank you! It took her awhile to get thru school (cancer survivor, raising 4 children and getting thru the masters program in nursing). I’m so proud of her! My grandson is graduating from high school and this would also be great for his graduation party as well!
I did make this and,opened a jar when my twin sister was over for lunch yesterday.it was sooo delicious my sister wants me to make her some. I did leave the pulp from the lemon in. I plan on making more for the summer, I also used frozen strawberries .
It's going to a 4th of July party with me Monday💞
I would roll the lemons on the counter to get lemons softer and producing all the juice out of them. Looks great.
Microwave your lemons for 30 seconds after you roll them.... thank me later
Making this now! But FYI, ‘organic’ is a $ word. Farmers still use pesticides on them. It’s more expensive because yield is less (farmer here).
I’ve always heard that lol
I ordered the steamer canner through your site today. My husband said it is my 50th wedding anniversary gift. We were married Saturday January 1, 1972. My old enamel canner has been in use all these 50 years and is now badly rusted so it was time!
Congratulations! 🎊
This works well with watermelon :)
If you have a kitchen aide mixer the juicer attachment would make easy work of those lemons!
It’s on my list 😉
You had me at Moscato
Definitely will be doing this recipe. But before I do can you share where you purchase your candy themotor or how are getting it to sit in the pot without you holding it while it strawberry mixture comes to temp.
Thanks for the recipe and this tutorial video. I canned only 4 pints using this recipe. I don’t know why it made such a little batch. Perhaps because I used Splenda for the sweetener. Anyway, the result was so pretty and delicious! Thank you so much!
Mine only made 4 1/2 pints.
The Ball Strawberry Margarita mix is amazing FYI if your looking to try more strawberry recipies😉 A fresh strawberry margarita with taco night in the dead of winter is a treat!
Which book is it in? That would be fabulous 😁
Carol - Thrifty Chic Housewife The All New Ball Book of Canning and Preserving page 124. It’s called strawberry syrup with the recipe for strawberry margaritas on the same page👍🏻 I know how much you love your Mexican food!
Edit- I do tweak the margarita recipe. The recipe in the book is very strong for my taste, but I think cocktails are all about personal taste anyways right!
Thank you 🥰
This looks so refreshing. Question: To reduce the foam when canning jam, Ball says to add a half teaspoon of butter to the pot. Do you think that I could do this with the lemonade mix? Thanks, Carol.
I don’t think you’d want the butter but you could try it. I really don’t see the foam as a problem 😊
I added just one little pat of butter like you do eith jelly. No foam.
This really looks good, can you explain the ph level with fresh lemons versus bottled lemon juice.? Appreciate you, thank you.
This recipe specifically calls for fresh lemon juice so bottled isn’t necessary for safety. Bottled lemon juice is often used in water bath canning recipes to ensure proper acidity. Most fruit is naturally high in acid and further acidity is not required for safety, as in this recipe.
nice vid...can you advise on how to use this for guava. thanks
I’m sorry I don’t have any guidance for doing guava
You definitely get a thumbs up from me.Have to try this for a summer treat.How long does it last on the shelf?
For best flavor use within a year 😊
I have canned 13 pints of this so far and going for another 7 pints 😀; one of my jars with the Tattler lid didn’t seal so I mixed up my jar and . . . WOW this is sooo good
I just started using harvest guard reusable lids. It's a branch off tattler, I think the son of the company started. I'm having issues with the lids unsealing days to weeks later. I never had that happen with regular metal lids. Have you noticed any issues with tattler? They are definitely sealed when I store them. They just come undone for some reason.
@@cathyann6835 yes. I have learned the gasket needs to be in hot simmering water. I leave the lids in a pan on the stove with water and let them simmer until I’m ready. So I will fill all of my jars, debubble, and wipe the rims off; then take the pan off the stove and start putting on my lids. Hope this helps.
So how many pints did you get from this recipe? 6 cups strawberries and sugar and lemon juice?
@@TheBellmenn i think it makes about 6 1/2 pints
Yummylicious!!! I gotta try this one. I absolutely love the jars you used on your 1st batch, what kind are they? Would love to purchase some for my canning.
They’re called Sharing Jars by Ball www.target.com/p/ball-4ct-16oz-collection-elite-sharing-glass-mason-jar-with-lid-and-band-regular-mouth/-/A-51335069
@@carol-thriftychichousewife6231 thanks 😊 so much 😘
Amazing! Planning on making this, this weekend! When I was reading the Ball book it says fruit juice could be added in replacement of sugar for jams, do you think I could use a white grape juice here instead of the added sugar? Or half the sugar?
I’m sure that would be fine as that is a safe swap
Hello Carol. I love your recipes, have tried too many to count, & have a question. My daughter asked me if home-squeezed fruit juice,( watermelon specifically, as well as all others) can be safely canned in mason jars at home?
If you could please provide any knowledge on this so I can let her know, it'd be much appreciated.
Only can those that have been testes for canning. Here’s an article discussing canning fruit juices www.kerrhomecanning.com/p/fruit-juices.html
@@carol-thriftychichousewife6231 Thank you so very much. My daughter saw some videos of people "canning" watermelon juice in Azerbaijan & sent it to me. I told her I could not find a tested recipe for watermelon juice & knew it's pH level is not acidic enough. I'm still somewhat new at food preservation so your help is much appreciated.
Hello Carol, can you use any fruit, with the lemon, to make and can this delicious lemonade? I made a frozen margarita with this recipe and it was amazing. 😋
I’m sorry but I can’t say changing the fruit would be safe to do. The recipe was tested with strawberries.
@@carol-thriftychichousewife6231 Thank you! I always trust your judgement. Your my go to lady! 🙏♥️
Would love to try this. How many cups of purée did you end up with from 6 cups of whole strawberries. I have frozen strawberry purée I would be using.
I honestly don’t recall the exact amount but I believe it was 3-31/2 cups 😊
Carol I like your thermometer, could you please let me know name brand and where purchased. Thank you
It’s by thermoworks. I purchased it online 😊
If you throw your lemon in the microwave for a few seconds it helps to release the juice.
I live in Arizona and we have a lemon tree. We get a lot of lemons every year. I would like to can straight lemonade concentrate but would like to do it safely. Any ideas or somewhere I can look?
I have an upcoming video that would be perfect. Stay tuned 😉
Hi Carol. I made this before watching your video. Two batches actually. I measured out puréed berries for the recipe vs cups of whole berries. Do you think it’s still okay to keep on the shelf?
Yes
Hi! I'm a newbie so forgive what is likely the first of many questions you'll get from me! If I understand you correctly, we do not have to have a candy thermometer as long as we do not let the mixture boil? Thank you!
Yes
Hello again I messaged you a few days ago that I was going to make this .I quite don’t understand the temperature on heating the strawberry mixture.You said to heat to 190 degrees is that Celsius or Fahrenheit?. I don’t understand I borrowed a candy thermometer from a friend in the building because, I couldn’t find one in town and,if I ordered one I wouldn’t get it until the end of the month or the 1st week of February.
Just wondering if I can let the concentrate cool and then can later in a cold canner?
Yes
How many cups puree did the 6 cups berries make,?
Could you do blueberry lemonade are peach?
Technically yes but I’m not sure the amounts would be the same
Carol, I just saw this video last nite, I’m wondering if I can use maraschino cherries instead of strawberries?
I’m sorry but I wouldn’t. It was tested as written
Newer subscriber here. I love those jars, would you please tell where you got them?
My local meijer. They are Ball jars
@@carol-thriftychichousewife6231 thank you! unfortunately I don't have a Meijer stores in my area. I might have to do an internet search.
Can you use Organic Sugar Cane? Thank you for sharing. Watching from Sacramento Ca
Yes
@@carol-thriftychichousewife6231 I have never canned before. I told my daughter this looks an easy project we can do together. She’s excited about it 😁. Thank you for sharing.
Will be making this after I pick strawberries next month! Which Ball book is the recipe in?
It might be in one of the books but I found it online on their website www.freshpreserving.com/blog?cid=strawberry-lemonade
@@carol-thriftychichousewife6231 thanks!
I just got the steam juicer do you think that would work for the berries? I just got 2 flats of strawberries and 2 of blueberries Blackberries are next!! When my Meyer Lemon was full of lemons we juiced a son of them and canned the juice. I have 12 pints and 1 qt so I will be using that.
I’m sorry I can’t really answer this question as I’ve never used a steam juicer 😊
@@carol-thriftychichousewife6231 ok, maybe I will try a quart of strawberry's to see what it looks like. My lemon juice is already canned sooo. I can try a small amount and see
Hi there 😊 do you think i can sub the lemons for oranges??? I was gifted 20lbs of oranges and need to use them up.
I’m honestly not sure if you can sub orange for lemon juice
Can you use bottle lemon juice if you can't get lemons
Yes
Do you know how many cups of strawberry juice if I strain it
I’m sorry I don’t
6 cups after you purée or before?
Before
Do you think raspberries could be substituted for the strawberries?
Yes
I didnt see the processing of making the mixture. So im not exactly sure how long to go in a blender to get that consistency
It will vary by blender or food processor. Blend until puréed
Is cane sugar okay to use ?
Yes
How long is this shelf stable for? I made some last year and now its dark in color and has some gelatinous strawberry stuff around the top. Idk if thats normal or not.
18months although strawberries can discolor over time
@@carol-thriftychichousewife6231 Thank you!
Can you use limes instead of lemons?
Yes
What if you used half fresh juice and half bottle juice
That would be fine
What if already have puréed strawberries? Measuring out 6 cups will not be accurate?
Correct
Can watermelon be canned and if so can it replace the strawberries?
Watermelon has not been tested for safety in this recipe so I wouldn’t
Can this be frozen rather than canned ?
Yes
Yesterday I canned whole strawberries and ended up losing the seals when I took them out of the canner. 3 qts. I'm wondering if I can use the juice from those jars for this recipe? I'm asking because the internal temp must have gotten above 190°. All of the juice recipes state not to cook above 190° when preparing them.
I do have fresh on hand but don't want to waste what I processed yesterday.
Any suggestions?
I will be making this today!!!
Honestly I’m not sure on that one. You might want to consider freezing it instead.
@@carol-thriftychichousewife6231 thank you for the reply. I will probably end up doing that. I just strained the jars and tasted it....very yummy!
