Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 0.5 cup Pomegranate seeds (arils)
- 1 cup Pomegranate juice
- 0.5 cup Water
Instructions
Gently separate the pomegranate seeds (arils) from a fresh pomegranate if not using pre-packaged seeds. Set aside 1/2 cup of seeds in a bowl.
In a small mixing bowl or measuring cup, combine 1 cup of pomegranate juice with 1/2 cup of water. Mix thoroughly to slightly dilute the juice, ensuring it freezes better while retaining rich flavor.
Take a standard 12-cube ice tray and place a few pomegranate seeds into each compartment. Aim for about 3-5 seeds per cube so each one bursts with color and texture.
Carefully pour the juice-water mixture into each ice cube compartment, filling them almost to the top. Be cautious not to overfill to avoid spilling.
Place the ice tray flat in your freezer and allow it to freeze for at least 4-6 hours, or until completely solid.
Once fully frozen, remove the cubes from the tray and store them in a zip-top freezer bag or airtight container for easy access.
Use the pomegranate ice cubes to enhance your drinks. Add them to water, lemonade, sparkling water, or any beverage of your choice for a flavorful and decorative touch.
