(Courtesy of Taste of Home)

Ingredients:
1 c. sugar
3/4 c. water
1 Tbsp. shredded orange peel
2 tsp. shredded lemon peel
1 1/2 tsp. shredded lime peel
1/3 c. orange juice
3 Tbsp. lemon juice
2 Tbsp. lime juice
4 c. sliced fresh strawberries

Directions:
In a small saucepan, combine the first 5 ingredients.  Bring to a boil.  Reduce heat; simmer, uncovered, for 5-6 minutes or until slightly thickened.  Strain; discard peels.  Add juices to the syrup; cool slightly.

Place half of the juice mixture and strawberries in a blender; cover and pulse until nearly smooth.  Transfer to a 2 quart freezer container.  Repeat with remaining juice mixture and berries.

Cover and freeze for 12 hours or overnight, stirring several times.  Ice may be frozen for up to 3 months.  Just before serving, break apart with a large spoon.
