We use pom juice for smoothies, to drink straight up or to blend with fresh juiced blueberries and raspberries for “antioxidant cocktails”!

I would definitely like a POMtini but I also think I’d use it in recipes too. Maybe try it in some oatmeal? ;-)

I’d like to try cooking quinoa in it with some golden raisins and walnuts for a new breakfast bowl of grains!

I just like drinking POM straight.

It’s really yummy.

It also makes me feel like a vampire for some unknown reason, which usually makes me laugh. :P

POMtinis all the way!
If I had a case that would be
the best post holidays party beverage.

I LOVE Pom juice…but being a poor college student, I rarely get it :(

Reply

Aya November 6, 2009 at 11:27 pm

As a lot of people said, I love it straight out! Recently had one of their POM juices and it was too good . . . I’d probably put some in a nice spicey fruity tea to make it seasonal.

That or maybe some bread (replace water with it?) I wish everyone luck!

Tatum November 7, 2009 at 12:29 am

I would use it in drinks. Maybe some mixed cocktails or with gingerale. yummy
