What is Pomegranate Juice?

The pomegranate is a red fruit with a thick, semi-shiny skin. The skin has a thick white interior, with a spongy texture that protects the seeds of the pomegranate. The seeds are clustered tightly together and sectioned into chunks, via a thin white membrane. These edible seeds are the size of a round sunflower seed. The seed has a translucent dark red flesh around it. This flesh has a tart, sweet and robust flavor. The juice from the flesh of the seeds are pressed to extract the juice, which has the same color and taste as the fresh seeds.
