So why not include a glass of this juice in our diet at least twice a week and enjoy its health benefits.Today we will learn How to make Beetroot Pomegranates juice following this simple recipe.

Strain using a juice strainer and keep the pomegranates juice aside.

Grind beetroots with 1/4 cups of water to a smooth paste and strain it using a muslin cloth or cheese cloth or any thin cotton fabric. Squeeze to extract as much juice as possible. Now your beetroot juice is also ready.

Now mix beetroot juice, lemon juice and pomegranate juice together, add honey (if required) to taste.
