Hey chef#822147 the mashed strawberries really make this a great recipe as long as you mash the strawberries after. Big, Big, difference. It makes it soo much better as long as you mash the strawberries after.

This is a really great recipe. I've made it twice this year (once for Memorial Day and once for 4th of July cookouts. The lemon really adds something great to the recipe. Everyone enjoyed it quite a bit.

Why would you combine all the berries and then mash JUST the strawberries? Why do you need to mash the strawberries and if you do, wouldn't you do that BEFORE you have already combined them with the other berries?
