Jason says...
Nothing quite like the taste of a ripe strawberry. These are probably the most popular of the berries and are just divine to eat as a snack. As with all the berries, they are great for the immune system and contain many anti-cancer properties.
Juice or smoothie?
Smoothie - but makes a wonderful, but expensive juice. They blend beautifully with other berries to give a delicious smoothie, rich in antioxidant and anti-aging properties. Blend with some banana and some live yogurt to give the smoothie a creamy texture.
