Juicy pineapple gives this glass its sweetness, while pomegranate seeds add a tart edge and a rosy tint. Only three ingredients, and it is ready in a few minutes.
150 g
pineapple ripe, peeled and diced
2 tbsp
pomegranate seeds
5 oz
water
Garnish: No garnish · Ice: Served up, no ice
Light and juicy, tropical sweetness balanced by tart pomegranate, with a slightly grainy texture from the kernels.
A simple fruit smoothie that lives on the quality of the pineapple. A fully ripe fruit smells sweet at the base and gives slightly when pressed; underripe pineapple tastes sharp and thin. Pineapple provides vitamin C and contains the enzyme bromelain, and pomegranate seeds bring a gentle tartness plus some fibre from the small kernels.
Because it is made with water rather than milk, the drink stays light and refreshing. It suits a warm afternoon or a fruity start to breakfast.
Yes, choose pineapple in its own juice and drain it, otherwise the smoothie becomes very sweet.
Halve it and tap the skin side firmly with a wooden spoon over a bowl, the seeds fall out.
Yes, all ingredients are plant based.
