Pomegranate/ Maadulampazha Juice






Pomegranate possess immense nutritional benefits, which is rich in Vitamin C, antioxidants, anti-bacterial properties, fiber and potassium (to name a few). It's good for pregnant women as it contains folic acid and lowers the blood pressure, along with the other benefits. Since it improves the blood circulation, it's often included in the diet for girls who have attained puberty.

Pomegranates are lovely to be consumed fresh by itself, which makes a healthy fruit snack,
 or as part of colourful salads.

If your kids are reluctant to eat it, you can make fresh juice out of it and I can guarantee that 
kids wouldn't have any qualms about drinking it. In fact, they would love the pink colour juice which is naturally sweet (mild though).

Here's how you make the juice:



Lovely colour!








Ingredients:

Fresh Pomegranate - 2

Water - 1/2 to 1 cup




Ready to grind..




ground Juice..




Filter using both large and fine strainer..


or a clean cotton towel..

Method:

Peel and take out all the seeds, add water and grind it in a blender.  Strain it with a fine strainer or clean cotton towel. No extra sugar needed, the natural sweet is enough to soothe our taste buds.


Serve right away!

Grapefruit and Orange Juice



Grapefruit and Orange Juice with Pulp!

Grapefruit is an excellent source of anti-oxidant Vitamin C, Vitamin A, and dietary fibre. (To
name a few, it has numerous other health benefits)

When you combine Grapefruit with Orange Juice, it’s much more palatable.

Ingredients:







 
Grapefruit – 2

Orange – 4

Glucolin Glucose – 2 tsp.

Water – ½ Cup

 
Method:


Squeeze juice from Grapefruit and Orange, using a Citrus Juicer.  I use Braun Citrus Juicer, it comes in very handy.

For Children you may wish to strain the pulp, using large strainer.  Add water and mix well.  Toss in 1 tsp. of Glucose per cup.

For adults, you need not add glucose, you can relish as it is, because bitterness and sourness of the Grapefruit will be mitigated by adding Orange juice. 

It’s purely acquired taste, so with the frequency of drinking you will start liking it.

Enjoy a healthy Drink!
