Ingredients

Scale

Ingredients

  • 3 pomegranates
  • 1 lime
  • 175 grams icing sugar
  • 500 millilitres double cream

Instructions

  1. Extract juices: Juice two of the pomegranates using a lemon squeezer and the lime, then strain the combined juices into a bowl to remove any pulp or seeds.
  2. Add icing sugar: Stir in 175 grams of icing sugar into the strained juice and whisk until the sugar is completely dissolved.
  3. Whisk cream: Gradually whisk in 500 millilitres of double cream until the mixture forms soft peaks; if using heavy cream or whipping cream, whisk the cream separately first, then fold in the juice mixture and whisk again until thickened.
  4. Freeze mixture: Spoon and smooth the cream into an airtight container and place in the freezer for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight, to set.
  5. Serve: Before serving, scatter pomegranate seeds from the third pomegranate on top as a garnish, adding texture and vibrant color.

Notes

  • Use a fine mesh strainer to ensure the juice is smooth without seeds or bits of pith.
  • Using cold double cream will help achieve better whipping results.
  • For a zestier flavor, you can add a teaspoon of freshly grated lime zest.
  • This recipe can be made ahead and stored in the freezer for up to 3 days for best freshness.
