Strawberries in Orange Juice

Alice Waters: The Art of Simple Food; Day 11; Recipe 16
It's exactly as it seems.  First, you juice three oranges, then hull a pint and half of strawberries.  In a bowl, combine orange juice, berries, and 3 tablespoons sugar.  Let sit in the fridge for 30 minutes or longer, serve chilled.  As you might tell from the photo, the berries darken the orange juice a bit, detracting from the dessert's appearance, but it tastes good nonetheless.  The taste is what you think it will be, and the sugar adds a nice sweetness and a touch of texture.  If you're eating your dessert around 10pm, like we were tonight, this a light and satisfying option.
