Strawberry Guava Juice

INTRODUCTION

When we forage Strawberry Guava, we know we need to use them within 24 hours or risk losing some of the fruit. We eat a lot fresh, freeze some, and use what’s left in recipes. We like to sort them into “grades” – the Grade A fruit is usually used for Strawberry Guava Shrub. We throw the rest of the Grade B fruit into a pot, giving it a quick cook and squeezing out the juice.
