You can leave out the powder mix if you are having trouble finding it. To give it more strawberry flavor you can do 1 teaspoon strawberry extract flavor or add another 1/2 cup to 1 whole cup more of fresh or frozen strawberries.
If it is too sweet add another cup of water to your jar or pitcher.
If it’s not sweet enough add 1/4 cup of sugar and add more as desired.
