    HI! First – I just wanted to say Hi – I really love your blog and I read it every day. It keeps me motivated to go to the gym and work off all the rich food that I cook/eat!

    I love love love POM straight up, and in cocktails – so yum. In addition to drinking it I would love to use it as part of a marinade or finishing sauce for meats like beef or lamb, and also maybe mixed with vinegar and oil as a dressing for salads!

  2. Rebecca on November 6, 2009 at 12:44 pm

    I love it in cocktails, but I have also been dying to try it in the recipe for coconut pomegranate bread!

  3. Gina on November 6, 2009 at 12:59 pm

    I like to add it to sparkling water…sooo yummy!

  4. Sara on November 6, 2009 at 1:01 pm

    I love to mix POM juice in my green tea to change it up a bit… I also like to make homemade POM lemonade with it.

  5. Kristine on November 6, 2009 at 1:01 pm

    HI! I am fairly new to your blog and LOVE it. There isn’t a day that goes by that I do not read your posts. You give me motivation to workout and eat healthier. Thank you for starting this blog! 🙂 I have only had pomegranates raw and as a cocktail but I would love to try them in many different recipes. Take care 🙂

    I kind of wonder if POM juice would work in a marinade for thinly sliced flank steak, quickly stir fried with beet greens and walnuts and served over brown rice.

    I used to be a BIG diet soda drinker, but I am quickly approaching 100 days soda-free! Lately when I need a carbonation fix I have been drinking sparkling water, and I know that adding POM Wonderful juice to the mixture would be an excellent combination! Send me a case : )

  8. Julia on November 6, 2009 at 1:08 pm

    I love Pom! However, on a college student budget it’s a rare treat so I would love to win this giveaway. My favorite thing to do with Pom is to mix it will Berry-Flavored La Croix — it’s delicious and also the closest I ever come to having soda. I would also like to experiment with pom waffles…

  9. Angie (Losing It and Loving It) on November 6, 2009 at 1:11 pm

    I would drink my POM juice AS IS! I love it but only drink a little at a time so it lasts. Yum!

  10. Angie (Losing It and Loving It) on November 6, 2009 at 1:14 pm

    I tweeted http://twitter.com/angienewton/status/5484982012

    That book looks really good. I wonder if it’s on Amazon. Gotta check.

  11. Melissa G on November 6, 2009 at 1:15 pm

    I would add a little bit to my daily green smoothies and then at night mix it with sparkling water, and on the weekends, POMTINI’S it is!

  12. Michelle on November 6, 2009 at 1:15 pm

    I definately want to make pomtinis, they looked so good and you can feel good about giving your body antioxidants even while partaking in some alcohol =)

  13. Ilana on November 6, 2009 at 1:18 pm

    i love it just straight up, but my favorite is grey goose, grapefruit juice, and pom. mmmmmmmmm

  14. Holly on November 6, 2009 at 1:27 pm

    Definitely some POMtinis! I want to try modifying a vegan berry muffin recipe and add POM to make super-antioxidant muffins! Thanks for the giveaway!

  15. crystal on November 6, 2009 at 1:27 pm

    okay, first off i just realized that my entry was a little unclear due to my pesky itouch! second off, i keep on reading “pom” as “porn” and think that it’s funny, lol. so here is my resubmission: POM + ginger + chia seeds = delicious and refreshing fresca drink!

  16. Chloe (Naturally Frugal) on November 6, 2009 at 1:28 pm

    I love POM in smoothies as well as just as a spritzer with some club soda and a squeeze of lime. However if I had a whole case I would definitely be using it to cook as well, perhaps make it into a sauce!

  17. Julie on November 6, 2009 at 1:31 pm

    I make a “spritzer”: 1/2 POM, 1/2 seltzer and a squeeze of lime. So refreshing!

  18. audrey w. on November 6, 2009 at 1:35 pm

    pom and champagne on xmas morning! festive and delicious 🙂

  19. Dana Moritz on November 6, 2009 at 1:36 pm

    Would love to win some POM juice! I’d love to make a POMtini, but I’d also like to try it in my morning smoothie! YUM!!! POM Chocolate Shakeology 🙂

  20. Ellie on November 6, 2009 at 1:39 pm

    Mmmm, POMtinis for sure! Would love to experiment with the rest of the case too!

  21. Katherine on November 6, 2009 at 1:40 pm

    I would love to add it to my morning smoothie or use it for drinks when I have my girlfriends over for dinner!

  22. Elizabeth Jones on November 6, 2009 at 1:43 pm

    Hi!

    I would love to use my POM in a smoothie. I’ve never tried that before but it would add a fabulous twist.

  23. Sherice on November 6, 2009 at 1:44 pm

    MM I need to try this. 🙂

  24. Ashley on November 6, 2009 at 1:45 pm

    I would make a pom vinaigrette for salad that sounds amazing! YUM! dont know how i would do it but i would figure something out 😉

  25. boomette1 on November 6, 2009 at 1:45 pm

    I would use POM juice to drink like that and by trying different drinks.

    I tweeted about it : http://twitter.com/boomette1

  26. Sue-Ellen on November 6, 2009 at 1:49 pm

    POMtini for me!

  27. Brianna on November 6, 2009 at 1:51 pm

    I would use them in pom-mocktails. And, give them to my kiddo who LOVE pom juice.

  28. Sonia on November 6, 2009 at 1:57 pm

    I would love to make salad dressing with Pom!

  29. Tasha - The Clean Eating Mama on November 6, 2009 at 2:00 pm

    I just love drinking it straight up!

  30. Tasha - The Clean Eating Mama on November 6, 2009 at 2:00 pm

  32. Esther on November 6, 2009 at 2:12 pm

    I love POM straight up and in POMtinis

  33. Arica on November 6, 2009 at 2:13 pm

    Hii.. I’d LOVE to win the POM and of course make some pom-tini’s.. along with some mocktails with pom+soda from soda stream machine!
    I’ve only had Pom once.. so I’d be excited to use it in as much as i could!

  34. W on November 6, 2009 at 2:17 pm

    Added to hot tea with oatmeal on a cold morning.

  35. Missy on November 6, 2009 at 2:19 pm

    Hi G$!
    Thank you for always having these wonderful contests and for keeping up w such a kick butt blog. I have got a few of my friends hooked on you blog, and all the healthy meal ideas for them.

    I would LOVe to win a case of POM to share with my family. I have two handsome little devils and a husband that would enjoy it!
    It makes us feel healthier when we drink it.
    And Id use it to make muffins !

    Thanks,
    Good luck everyone!

  36. Beverly on November 6, 2009 at 2:20 pm

    Right now I am freezing in Boston so I would love to add it to something hot. Maybe tea. But normally I would add it to my morning smoothie. Yum.

  37. Amanda on November 6, 2009 at 2:23 pm

    Definitely a Pom-tini!! I have yet to try one!

  38. sarah on November 6, 2009 at 2:23 pm

    a whole case of pom! yum!! I would drink it “straight up”, make smoothies, and try a new recipe like a muffin recipe with it. Since I am in college and typically really busy, I would feel that I’m getting some extra nutrition that I need on those rough days of studying biochem and anatomy.

  39. Mandy on November 6, 2009 at 2:25 pm

    Oh I would so make a Pom-tini!!!! 🙂

  40. Des on November 6, 2009 at 2:31 pm

    POMtini BabY!

  41. Adriana on November 6, 2009 at 2:38 pm

    I would use them with vodka…for a healthy dose of antioxidants in my booze ;)!

  42. Ashley on November 6, 2009 at 2:38 pm

    While I’d love to say in a healthy smoothie…POMtini all the way baby! Hey it’s got antioxidants : )

  43. Jess on November 6, 2009 at 2:42 pm

    I’d use my POM juice in smoothies, in POMtinis, and straight from the bottle!

  44. soup on November 6, 2009 at 2:47 pm

    Id definately use it in some sort of alcohol concoction 😀

  45. Erin @ Living and Loving In L.A. on November 6, 2009 at 2:50 pm

    I would TOTALLY make a Pom tini, and then blog about it, of course!!! Crossing my fingers!!!

  46. Jill on November 6, 2009 at 2:50 pm

    I would mix it in with my hot tea, smoothies, etc.. Also, I really have been wanting to try making a marinade for beef with it.

  47. Low on November 6, 2009 at 2:53 pm

    I’ve really been wanting to try those POM spritzer everyone in blogland is having. I think it’s just POM + selzter?

  48. Susan on November 6, 2009 at 2:55 pm

    I would use it in a smoothie!

  49. borntocare on November 6, 2009 at 2:56 pm

    Pomegranates are my favorite cocktail and smoothie ingredient! I love the tart juicy flavor and the awesome nutrient content (makes me feel better about having a cocktail :)). I remember my Grandma used to have a pomegranate tree when I was young and one of my favorite things to do was pick, peel, and eat them… soooo delicious! I’d love to have a case of the juicy goodness!

  50. ashleigh on November 6, 2009 at 3:02 pm

    i would love to try a pomtini or drink it straight up!
