POMEGRANTE SHAKE

I never know using pomegrante, shakes can be prepared until unless my hubby prepared for me this delight. I could proudly say I am learning new things from my hubby itself :) Its very simple and easy to prepare in no time. Its the best cooling beverage for all especially for kids as its very useful for them because it increases memory power, contains vitamins B, C along with folic acid and also has excellent antioxidant properties.

One more tip to enjoy this heavenly drink is to have it with a single or double scoop of vanilla icecream. Isn't that yummyyyyy :)




INGREDIENTS:

2 Cups De seeded Pomegrante.

1 Cup Chilled Milk.

Sugar as per taste.

4 to 5 Almonds.

METHOD:

First soak almonds in half cup of hot milk for about half an hour. Remove its skin and keep it aside. Blend all the ingredients plus almonds together in a mixer for about 1 min.

Serve it chilled. Garnish accordingly.

NOTE:

For much more healthier version instead of adding normal milk try adding soya milk. Its extra good for you.
