Pomegranate and Blueberry Smoothie |
Pomegranate and Blueberry |
The other day I bought two good-sized pomegranate and one 6 oz container of blueberries from Italian market in South Philly. All for $3 (they were a dollar each). I decided to make a smoothie with the antioxidant-enriched fruits. After taking about 30 minutes meticulously extracted the pomegranate seeds, I washed and threw them in the blender along with the washed blueberry, some water, and a cup. The ingredients yielded about 4 cups of filtered juices. Overall, the juice was fresh and sweet. At first, I forgot to filter the juice so remember to filter the seeds out or every mouthful of juice will be with seeds, which can be annoying.
Hopefully, gulping down this tasty concoction will be a step
toward getting a little bit healthier, especially, since studies have shown
that blue berries and pomegranate are beneficial in heart disease prevention
and cancer prevention.
