Red Rubies



Don't these pomegranates remind you of red rubies? They look like those jewels to me. Their high content of Vitamin C also provide high nutrients to us!

Do you know that grenadine syrup (which is used to make our cocktails) is made of sweetened promegranate juice? I have drank the pure pomegranate juice in its original form - which is very, very sour!

Thanks Ming! That is definitely a merciful comment!

And Keropok Man, do you make your own pomegranate juice? Or it came bottled from the supermarket? I tasted the juice for the first time while in Xinjiang, China. Haven't heard of pomegranate juice before that.

"Use your first smile, your first form of generosity, of love, of kindness—use it at home; start at home. And if there is something left over—if … your plate is just full of abundance of patience and goodness and smiles and joy, then by all means, you should go … and offer that to others. But we must begin at home." by Dr Robin Smith
