Dissolve the honey in 2 cups of apple juice (45 lbs of juice = 5 gallons) and add it and the rest of the juice to a sanitized carboy. Pitch yeast.
After the gravity gets to 1.006, crash cool in the lagering fridge to stunt fermentation, rack to a secondary, and add 5 lbs of frozen strawberries (thawed and crushed), add potassium sorbate, and then store cool for a couple of months.
If too dry, back-sweeten with 1 can frozen apple juice concentrate (all natural if possible).
