Pomegranate Frozen Yogurt

A while ago I mentioned that Ryan and I had gone to Red Mango and gotten some pomegranate frozen yogurt. It was so delicious and we are obsessed with it now. Well, for the last few weeks I've been experimenting with making our own frozen yogurt at home and I think I finally have a recipe that I'm satisfied with. Ryan has a friend that used to work at Red Mango that gave us a push in the right direction, although she said that they didn't add sugar to their recipe, but the yogurt that I made at home just didn't taste right without a little added sugar. If you want to try this recipe out, you have to make sure to get 100% pomegranate juice, with no sugar added. They have pomegranate juice cocktails that have sugar and other fruit juices added, but you do not want to use those. Red Mango uses POM brand pomegranate juice, but I have actually found that Langers All Pomegranate juice has a little bit of a stronger flavor and makes tastier frozen yogurt.

Pomegranate Frozen Yogurt

• 2 Cups Plain Yogurt
• 1 Cup Pomegranate Juice
• 1/4 Cup Sugar

Pour pomegranate juice and sugar into a sauce pan and heat on stove until sugar is just dissolved. Transfer mixture to a Tupperware container and put it in the refrigerator (1-2 hours). When the juice and sugar mixture is cold, remove and add the yogurt. Mix until well blended. Pour into ice cream machine and freeze like normal ice cream.

You can eat the frozen yogurt right away or let it set up in the freezer for an hour or so before eating. Enjoy!
