INGREDIENTS

  • Cooking Time: 0
  • Servings: 1
  • Preparation Time: 5
  • Pomegranate Plunge
  • 1 cup pomegranate arils
  • 1/2 cup fresh or frozen cranberries
  • 2 tablespoon turbinado sugar
  • 3/4 cup water
  • 1 ripe banana
  • 4-5 strawberries, hulled

It’s also been shown to improve fertility. Try these recipes:

Recently, the PR team from Tropical Smoothie Café sent me two recipes from their new ‘supercharged’ smoothie line to share with my readers! These smoothies contain antioxidant-packed fruits such as pomegranates, goji berries, and acai berries. I included two smoothie recipes below and my thoughts on each.
