Pomegranate seeds bring a juicy, winey tartness that stands up well to the bitterness of dandelion. Pear softens everything and adds body.

Tart and fruity, with pear sweetness and a light, bitter green finish.
Pomegranate seeds, also called arils, are juicy and tart-sweet and contain polyphenols as well as vitamin C. Blended with green leaves, their red colour mixes into a brownish, autumnal shade, so this smoothie wins on taste rather than looks. Dandelion leaves bring a pleasant bitterness, baby spinach a mild green note, and a ripe pear ties it all together with sweetness. A good glass for autumn and early spring.
Yes, about 100 ml unsweetened juice; then reduce the water.
Red pomegranate and green leaves mix into an earthy tone; the taste is not affected.
