Recipe Notes

Carol says
I tried a recipe recommended by a friend for colds and for the voice return of the cranberries in orange and a pomegranate all blended together and to eat it I did this for three days my voice improved but not not to where it needed to be as we are both singers The smoothie was quite tart so I added some honey and some yogurt to make it more of a smoothie and I did use Greek plain yogurt. I did not strain, used 12 oz of fresh cranberries, 1 whole pomegranate and 1 large navel orange. I will try again with your recipe because I know the smoothie had potential for being more palatable and delicious. She called it “wild music “.
