Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Pomegranate seeds
- 1 cup Pineapple chunks (fresh or canned, drained)
- 1 medium Mango (peeled and diced)
- 1 cup Fresh orange juice
- 1 cup Cold water
- 1 tablespoon Honey (optional, for sweetness)
- 6 pieces Ice cubes
- 6 leaves Mint leaves (for garnish)
Instructions
Place the pomegranate seeds, pineapple chunks, diced mango, and fresh orange juice in a blender.
Add the cold water to help with blending and to achieve a juice-like consistency.
Blend the mixture on high speed for about 1-2 minutes, or until the ingredients are fully liquefied and smooth. If your blender struggles, you can add more water, 1 tablespoon at a time.
If you prefer a smoother juice without pulp, pour the mixture through a fine mesh sieve or cheesecloth into a large bowl and use a spoon to press down the solids to extract as much liquid as possible.
Taste the juice and, if additional sweetness is desired, stir in honey and blend again briefly until combined.
Fill glasses with ice cubes and pour the Pomegranate Pajamba Juice over the ice.
Garnish each glass with fresh mint leaves, and serve immediately for the freshest flavor.
