I found this recipe in a Native American cookbook and it really is the perfect Spring drink, since every store around here has local strawberries really cheap. Maple syrup is not cheap, but it is the time of year when people up North are tapping maple trees and making syrup.
Iroquois Strawberry Drink
1 pint ripe strawberries
4 cups water
4 tablespoons maple syrup

Serve.
