I'm not much for pomegranate juice on it's own (though I do like the fruit itself), but it goes very nicely in this drink! As with most drinks like this, I leave out the ice cubes, especially when using frozen fruits, as I did here! I also added a measure of vanilla protein powder & then left out the extract! Thanks for A VERY NICE TREAT! [Tagged, made & reviewed in Zaar Chef Alphabet Soup tag]

A neat way to use the pomegranate juice (that I didn't know what to do with) and the fresh strawberries (that were going bad) and my no sugar added low fat vanilla ice cream. Not super sweet but a lovely drink. I didn't know how much vanilla was appropriate so I used 1/2 tsp. That seemed about right. I think frozen strawberries would give it more frothiness. Thanks Zoe!
