Pomegranate makes for a nice, neat, tasty drink, especially with a squish of lemon to tangy up the savour. The colour is so enticing you can get anybody to drink it. One glass of pomegranate juice, that would be 8 ounces, has 134 calories, 33 grams of carbohydrates and it has less than 1 gram each of protein and fat. So it is a healthy drink! Just blitz it in a mixer and strain it, and there you have it all!
