Step 4: Blend Until Smooth
Blend all the ingredients until the pomegranate seeds are smooth. Then, strain the mixture through cheesecloth to remove any pulp. Don’t worry; we’ll put the leftovers to good use later!
Step 5: Add the Final Touches
To give our smoothie a refreshing kick, add water and a teaspoon of ginger to the blend. Ginger is well-known for its digestive benefits, stimulating gastric juice production and enhancing appetite. If you have any sensitivities, proceed with caution.
Step 6: Simmer and Sweeten
Simmer the delightful mixture with 500ml of water over low heat for 20-30 minutes. Then, stir in two tablespoons of coconut oil and a tablespoon of honey for a natural touch of sweetness.
Bonus Tip: Utilize Pomegranate Peel
But wait, there’s more! Did you know that pomegranate peel contains tannins that can reduce inflammation and improve digestion? After enjoying your smoothie, create an excellent hand scrub using the leftover peel. Simply apply it with gentle massage motions, leave it on for 7-10 minutes, and rinse with warm water.
And there you have it! A refreshing and nutritious pomegranate smoothie guaranteed to leave you feeling energized and revitalized. Here’s to your health!
