Peach and strawberry juice that’s naturally sweet and wonderfully refreshing. Best served ice cold on a warm day.
This easy, vibrant juice combines ripe peaches, sweet strawberries and a crisp apple for a bright, naturally sweet drink. It’s quick to make, full of fresh flavour and perfect for summer mornings, picnics or to cool down after time outdoors. Use ripe fruit for the best sweetness and aroma — the juicier the peaches and strawberries, the more vibrant the result.
To make this juice you’ll need one large apple, three juicy peaches and about eight strawberries. Wash and prepare the fruit, remove any cores or stones, then run everything through a juicer. Serve over plenty of ice for a chilled drink that’s naturally fruity with no added sugar.
Ingredients for Peach and Strawberry Juice
- 1 large apple
- 3 ripe peaches
- 8 strawberries (or to taste)
Equipment Needed
- Juicer (or blender plus fine sieve/cheesecloth if you don’t have a juicer)
- Chopping board
- Sharp knife
- Pitcher and serving glasses
How to Make Peach and Strawberry Juice
- Wash all fruit thoroughly under cold water to remove any dirt or residues.
- Core the apple and cut into pieces that fit your juicer’s feed chute. You can leave the skin on the apple for extra nutrients and colour.
- Remove the peach stones and cut the peaches into wedges. If the peaches are very soft, handle gently to avoid squashing them.
- Remove the green tops from the strawberries and slice larger berries in half.
- Feed the apple, peaches and strawberries through your juicer following the manufacturer’s instructions. Alternate firmer and softer fruit to help the juicer work smoothly.
- If you don’t have a juicer: put the fruit into a blender with a splash of cold water, blend until smooth, then strain through a fine mesh sieve or cheesecloth to separate the juice from the pulp.
- Taste and adjust: if the juice needs more brightness, add a squeeze of lime or lemon. If it’s too tart, a small drizzle of honey or maple syrup can help, though ripe fruit should be sweet enough on its own.
- Pour the juice over ice, stir gently and serve with a straw or a sprig of mint for garnish.
Make Peach and Strawberry Juice Your Way
- Add a twist of lime or lemon for a citrus lift that balances the sweetness.
- Fresh mint leaves make a lovely aromatic addition — crush gently before adding to release their flavour.
- For a creamier texture, blend in a little yogurt or a splash of coconut water after juicing.
- Freeze into popsicles: pour the juice into lolly moulds and freeze for refreshing fruit pops.
- Boost the volume and hydration by diluting with chilled sparkling water for a light, fizzy summer spritzer.

Serving and Storage Tips
- Serve immediately for the freshest flavour and brightest colour. Fresh juice will lose some aroma and nutrients if left too long.
- Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 24–48 hours. Shake or stir well before serving, as natural separation will occur.
- For travel or packed lunches, keep the juice chilled in an insulated bottle or flask to preserve freshness.
