POM Wonderful

July 3rd, 2008

I got a taste of this new Pom (Pomegranate) juice when I was passing the Estee Lauder Cosmetics Counter at Macy’s. They were actually promoting their new product which had pomegranate in it. They were handing out the Pom juice, as a promotion. The lady said the juice was ‘tart’. When I tried it, my facial expression weirded out my husband. It was “tart” with a capital T. I know its wonderful and all, its antioxidant properties, etc, etc, but how can you drink a full glass of this tart juice!!

So, you know me, I usually like to eat healthy things (Chocolate is healthy in my dictionary…ahem!); so I mixed Guava juice with Pom juice, and the tartness was greatly reduced because of the sweetness of the Guava juice. So, I wouldn’t mind having Pom juice in the future, if its mixed with some sweeter juice.

These are a couple pictures of Pom tree, and the flower taken in Kashmir recently, around my in laws house.

Yes, our juice is a bit tart the first time you try it, I like to think it’s because of all those antioxidants going to work. Email me your address and I’d be happy to send you some to try again. I know we hear a lot of people drinking it with sparkling water, sprite and we have several drink recipes on our site as well.

Cheers,

Hi Pom Blogger,

Thanks for your comment, I really liked it, except it was too tart by itself. But I guess after you have it few times, it wont seem as tart.

Thanks, I will email you my address, and def I will give it another go.

Btw, I am big fan of the fruit itself, infact my inlaws have a few Pom trees around their house. They live in Kashmir (northern part of India).

Thanks again for your comment.
