Energize your day with the Pomegranate Power Punch Smoothie — a rich, fruity blend bursting with antioxidants, natural sweetness, and creamy texture. This smoothie combines the bold tartness of 100% pomegranate juice with the mellow sweetness of bananas and blueberries, elevated by a touch of raw organic honey and creamy vanilla yogurt. Perfect as a post-workout refresher, breakfast booster, or afternoon pick-me-up, this smoothie delivers both flavor and functional health benefits in every sip.
📝 Ingredients:
- 1 cup 100% pomegranate juice (unsweetened)
- 1 ripe banana
- ½ cup fresh or frozen blueberries
- 1 tablespoon raw organic honey
- ½ cup vanilla yogurt (Greek or regular)
🌀 Directions:
Add the pomegranate juice, banana, blueberries, honey, and vanilla yogurt into a blender. I like to use frozen blueberries to keep the drink cold and refreshing without adding ice cubes.
Blend until smooth and creamy.
Pour into a glass, top with a few fresh blueberries if desired, and enjoy chilled!
