Pomegranate Smoothie With Cranberry

July 25, 2009 · Filed Under Fruit Smoothies, Healthy Smoothies · Comment 

Sadly I only discovered the incredible flavor rush of fresh pomegranate seed a year or so ago. So I have missed out, but I am making up for lost time. When the pomegranate is in season (Oct. – Jan.) I try to get the actual fruit, but other times I must buy the pomegranate juice to make smoothie. Here is a great pomegranate smoothie recipe that will perk up your taste buds and give you a burst of energy.

Ingredients:
3 cups chilled unsweetened cranberry juice
3/4 cup chilled pomegranate juice
1/3 cup fresh lime juice
6 packets of no-calorie sweetener
3 cups chilled club soda

In large pitcher, combine cranberry juice, pomegranate juice and lime juice. Stir in sweetener until dissolved. Add club soda and pour into glasses. (Serves 4) Courtesy of InStyle Magazine

No Oxidantal Buzz!

No Oxidantal Buzz!

This recipe combines the powerful antioxidants found in tart cherries with an antioxidant cousin, the pomegranate.  Mix them with some vodka and ice and the result is a multi-berryable buzz.  You can spice up the drink with some blackberry brandy.  Use it in moderation as it tends to overpower the other flavors.  You may or may want to add a spoonful of sugar to help the (tart) go down, although, it’s very delicious on its own!
Ingredients:

  • 8 oz Ice
  • 2 oz Vodka
  • 1 oz Pomegranate Liquor
  • ½ oz Blackberry Brandy (Optional)
  • 8 oz Tart Cherry Juice
  • 1 Table Spoon Sugar (Add or Subtract to individual preference)

Preparation:

  • Mix all in Blender
  • Pour into 10 oz Glass
  • Garnish with a Maraschino Cherry
  • Serve

Recipe provided by Cherry Pharm, all natural cherry juice.
