FBR TIPS

• If you have a vita-mix you will have to use the plunger as the drink is thick and you will need to help break it down and blend it

 

• If you don't have a vita-mix, make sure that you stop blending and use a spoon to scrape the sides and help to break it down.  You will have to be patient as it will take a bit of time since this is a thick drink.  If you are finding it isn't breaking down, add a bit more pomegrante juice

 

• I purchased fresh cranberries and placed in freezer and used frozen strawberry slices

​

• This drink has a tarter taste, if you prefer it sweeter add more strawberries and less cranberries
