Strawberry "juloose"

It's almost summer again. As I get ready for the warm temperatures and for moving back to California, where the strawberries are delicious and affordable, I remember the blended drink that my mother used to make. My brothers and I called this drink strawberry "juloose", but I don't remember now where the name came from. My mother made this drink by placing ripe strawberries, ice, water, and a small amount of sugar in a blender, then whipping the mixture together until it was pink, cold, and frothy. I could go for a glass right now...
