Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Cut pomegranates in half. Hold each half over a bowl and tap the back with a spoon until all seeds fall out into the bowl.

  2. Step 2

    Pour seeds into a blender and blend for 15 seconds until mostly broken down but still some juice sprays the sides.

  3. Step 3

    Strain mixture through a fine-mesh sieve into a pitcher, pressing seeds gently with the back of a spoon to extract all juice.

  4. Step 4

    Stir in sugar or honey if desired. Fill glasses with ice and pour juice to the rim.

  5. Step 5

    Top each glass with a small spoonful of reserved pomegranate seeds. Serve immediately.
