3. Combine ingredients.

Into your mashed fruit, pour 4 fl ounces (100 ml) of the sugary syrup that was prepared earlier. Stir this mixture gently, but thoroughly.

4. Cut a pair of panty hose.

Cut the end off a clean pair of panty hose (make sure they're an old pair). You can also cut a square of clean muslin and stretch this over the top of a tall pitcher. Secure with a rubber band.

5. Strain the fruit.

Pour the fruit mixture through the cloth. The cloth will act like a fine strainer and allow only juice to pass through and collect in the bowl underneath. Leave this for an hour or two.
