Recipe: Feelgood fruit punch

Lottie Storey March 4, 2017

Pomegranate has long been hailed as a promoter of fertility and for having amazing health benefits such as boosting the immune system, preserving youthful vitality and promoting longevity – claims that stand up to modern research*.

Enjoy this tangy recipe as an energising breakfast blend or add a splash of vodka or rum for cocktails.

PASSION FRUIT PUNCH

1 x 500ml bottle pure pomegranate juice
Juice of 2 limes
Juice of 1 orange
2 tsp finely minced ginger
Lime or orange slices for garnish (optional)

To make

Combine all the ingredient except the garnish in a small glass or plastic storage container and chill in the fridge for at least two hours to allow the zippy flavour of the ginger to infuse the juices.

To serve

Decide whether you want to strain out the ginger. If you leave it in, just chew it as you enjoy the drink – it freshens breath and aids digestion, too.

Shake the punch well and pour into chilled glasses with or without ice.

Garnish with citrus slices if you wish.

Recipe from Making Love Potions by Stephanie L Tourles (Storey)

* Pomegranate is a rich source of antioxidants.

The Simple Things

Taking time to live well

We celebrate slowing down, enjoying what you have, making the most of where you live, enjoying the company of of friends and family, and feeding them well. We like to grow some of our own vegetables, visit local markets, rummage for vintage finds, and decorate our home with the plunder. We love being outdoors and enjoy the satisfaction that comes with a job well done.
