Ingredients:

1 large pomegranate (about 1 to 1.5 cups of seeds)

2 cups of chilled milk (use full-fat milk for a creamier texture)

1/2 cup vanilla or plain yogurt (optional for added creaminess)

2 tablespoons honey or sugar (adjust to taste)

1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional for added flavor)

Ice cubes (optional, for a thicker shake)

Pomegranate seeds and mint leaves for garnish

Cut the pomegranate in half, and carefully extract the seeds. Discard any white pith, as it can be bitter. Set aside a few seeds for garnish.

In a blender, add the pomegranate seeds, chilled milk, yogurt, honey or sugar, and vanilla extract.

If you prefer a thicker milkshake, add a few ice cubes.

Blend on high until the mixture is smooth and creamy. Depending on your blender, this may take 1-2 minutes.

If you prefer a smoother texture, strain the milkshake through a fine mesh sieve to remove any remaining pulp or seed bits.

Pour the pomegranate milkshake into tall glasses.

Garnish with the reserved pomegranate seeds and a sprig of mint for a fresh touch.

Serve immediately while it's chilled, and enjoy the refreshing and nutritious flavors of this pomegranate milkshake!

For a vegan version, you can substitute the dairy milk with almond or coconut milk and use a dairy-free yogurt or skip the yogurt entirely.

You can also add a scoop of vanilla ice cream for an extra indulgent treat.
