Pomegranate Juice

Directions

1. 1
   Cut off the top and bottom, approximately 1/4 inch, of the Pomegranate.
2. 2
   Score (by cutting almost through the outer skin) around the body of it.
3. 3
   Submerge the whole fruit in cold water.
4. 4
   Pry it apart on the scores.
5. 5
   The ripe Arrils (seed sacks) will sink, while the unripe ones will float.
6. 6
   Once you've done approximately 5 or 6, just gather the Arrils.
7. 7
   Put approximately 1.5 cups in a blender container. Measure into the same blender container 3 cups water and Ice combined.
8. 8
   Top with 1.5 cups more Arrils.
9. 9
   Turn on the blender to liquefy, let it run approximately 3 minutes. (To break open the seed sacks.)
10. 10
    Strain the resulting liquid through doubled or tripled cheesecloth, or if you happen to have a piece of cotton cloth, you can use that.
11. 11
    I find it works best if you let it rest for 24 hours.
