Strawberry Compote (клубничный компот) is a chilled sweet drink that is popular in many post-soviet countries. It is similar to strawberry jam or conserves in taste (less sweet/concentrated flavor), but resembles fruit punch in looks and consistency. It is very easy to adjust this recipe and scale it up/down.

|
FYI, I suggest using organic strawberries for this (may be on the expensive side), it makes a world of difference in flavor.

## Ingredients
|
|
|
|
- Strawberries (two standard packs works best)
|
|
- Sugar
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Directions
|
|
|
|
1. Get 3 bowls and a butter knife (if the butter knife has a point, that will work better)
|
|
2. Dump out both packs of strawberries into a sieve or bowl and wash them thoroughly.
|
|
3. Remove the stem and leaves/crown of the strawberry. The crown can be peeled by hand, then use the butter knife to cut out the stem.
|
|
4. Large strawberries can be cut in half.
|
|
5. Once all of the strawberries are clean, put them in a standard 4 quart (3.8 L) pot. Fill it with water to the brim.
|
|
6. Put the pot to boil. The strawberries will gradually lose their color, which is completely normal.
|
|
7. Once it boils, let it cook for 5 mins.
|
|
8. After five minutes are over, turn off the heat and incrementally add sugar to your preference. I suggest 1-1.5 cups (237 to 355 grams) of sugar for 4 quarts (3.8 L) of compote. Taste between helpings of sugar to make sure its not oversweetened.

|
9. Let the pot cool, then refrigerate. Serve chilled. |
