In a medium bowl, use a hand mixer or a whisk to combine the milk and granulated sugar until the sugar is dissolved, about 1 – 2 minutes on low speed. Stir in the heavy cream plus any accumulated juices from the strawberries and vanilla. Turn the machine ON, pour mixture into freezer bowl through ingredient spout and let mix until thickened, about 25 – 30 minutes. Add the sliced strawberries during the last 5 minutes of freezing. Note: this ice cream will have a “natural” appearance of very pale pink; if a deeper pink is desired, sparingly add drops of red food coloring until desired color is achieved.
