POM Gelato

Juice from 4 large POM Wonderful Pomegranates,* or 2 cups POM Wonderful 100% Pomegranate Juice
1 cup water
1/4 cup granulated sugar, or more, to taste
1/2 cup mascarpone, creme fraiche or yogurt

Prepare fresh pomegranate juice.*

In a saucepan, reduce 2 cups pomegranate juice and 1 cup of water down to 1 cup over low heat.

Freeze the reduced pomegranate juice in an ice-cube tray. (Individual cubes will freeze faster.)

Put the frozen pomegranate cubes in a food processor with 1/4 cup sugar and grind briefly.

Add the mascarpone and pulse until the mixture is smooth.

Transfer the mixture into a small container and freeze again, 20 to 30 minutes, before serving. You can pulse the gelato briefly in the food processor if it freezes too much.

* For 3-1/2 cups of juice, cut 7-10 large POM Wonderful Pomegranates in half and juice them with a citrus reamer or juicer. Pour the mixture through a cheesecloth-lined strainer or sieve. Set the juice aside.
