Pomegranate — a heavenly mismatch of frozen sweet vanilla ice cream, tart pomegranate sauce, and pulpy pomegranate seeds. Ice cream gives a rich, velvety base, its creaminess a smooth backdrop for the pomegranate’s fruity, brash notes. The bright red and acidic sweetness of the pomegranate sauce is a killer flavor pairing, and adds a pop of color to the ice cream.

The recipe gets a crunchy finish, too, thanks to fresh pomegranate seeds, which give it another level of texture and an added pop. Pomegranate, famous for its antioxidant properties, also brings a bit of brightness and healthful benefits to this decadent prep. Whether served as a simple dessert or an indulgent sharing treat, this dessert is a little bit of indulgence and a little bit wellness, with creamy, tangy and crunchy all in one bite to end on a satisfying note.
