Ingredients

• 2 pomegranates
• 2 oranges
• 2 cucumbers
• a chunk of ginger

This morning we needed to deseed 2 pomegranates for a juice and I thought there has to be an easier way to use a pomegranate when it’s just getting juiced. I googled to make sure the pith was safe and scanned a few sites and yes, it is. Some sites say not in large quantities though, so maybe if you are juicing Pom’s everyday this isn’t a good method. I found that Pom Wonderful - the pomegranate juice company - crushes and uses the whole pomegranate. The pith is more bitter which is why you may not want to juice it, but Mark & I didn’t find our juice bitter at all. Maybe it’s because of what we juiced it with. (2 poms, 2 oranges, 2 cucumbers, a chunk of ginger). The outer skin contains more health benefits than the pith, but we skipped it this time since I wasn’t sure how bitter it would be if I juiced it all. I don’t juice poms often, but I’m going to try it eventually. I used the Nama J2 Juicer, but if you have a different juicer you may need to cut your Pom in smaller pieces.
