Ingredients
- 1 cup pomegranate seeds (arils) fresh or frozen
- 1 cup frozen strawberries for creaminess and sweetness
- 1 cup unsweetened almond milk or any plant-based milk
- 1 tbsp rose water culinary grade
- 1 tbsp honey or maple syrup optional, adjust to taste

Notes
For storage, keep in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours; shake or stir before serving as separation may occur. Make-ahead tip: pre-portion the frozen fruit and seeds in freezer bags for quick blending. For a protein boost, add a scoop of vanilla plant-based protein powder. Substitute pomegranate juice for seeds if unavailable, but reduce liquid slightly.
