- ~54 kcal / 100 ml
- Energy density
- 54 kcal / 100 ml

- 54 kcal / 100 ml × 30 ml ÷ 100 = ≈ 16 kcal
A planning figure, not a laboratory analysis. It is here so a recipe can be reasoned about, not so it can be declared on a menu.
Shelf life: Best straight off the press. Holds the working day refrigerated in a sanitized, dated bottle. Loose seeds: covered and refrigerated, 1–2 days.
Storage: Whole fruit: cool and ventilated. Juice and seeds: refrigerated, sealed, dated.
- Pomegranate refreshers and jewel-toned alcohol-free layers
- Pomegranate iced tea
- The seeds double as garnish
Press the halves gently — grinding into the white pith turns it bitter. Strain and serve fresh, or hold cold in a sanitized, dated bottle for the day.
Naturally rich in polyphenols. Tart enough that little or no added sugar is needed.
