- ¾ cup (180 ml) pomegranate juice
- 1 orange, peeled, halved
- 2 Tablespoons (30 g) plain Greek yogurt

- Select Variable 1.
- Turn machine on and slowly increase speed to Variable 10, then to High.
- Blend for 45 seconds or until desired consistency is reached.
Notes
- Flaxseed must be ground to get the nutritional benefits. The Vitamix pulverizes them finely to achieve this.
- This recipe has been written for the C-Series machines with Variable Speed control and Standard 64-ounce container. If you are using a different Vitamix machine or container size, you may need to make adjustments to the Variable Speed, processing time, and/or ingredient quantities.
