Iron-Boosting Fruit Punch Recipe

Ingredients:

For the Punch:

 2 cups orange juice (freshly squeezed or store-bought, rich in vitamin C to boost iron absorption)

 1 cup pomegranate juice (high in iron and antioxidants)

 1 cup prune juice (great source of iron)

 1 cup strawberry puree (blend fresh or frozen strawberries)

 1/4 cup lemon juice (freshly squeezed, for a zesty kick)

 2-3 tbsp honey or maple syrup (optional, for sweetness)

 2 cups cold water or sparkling water (for a fizzy twist)

For Garnish:

 Fresh strawberries, sliced

 Orange slices

 Pomegranate seeds

 Fresh mint leaves

Instructions:
Prepare the Strawberry Puree:

 Blend 1 cup of fresh or frozen strawberries until smooth. Strain if you prefer a seedless puree.

Mix the Punch:

 In a large pitcher, combine the orange juice, pomegranate juice, prune juice, strawberry puree, and lemon juice.

 Add honey or maple syrup to taste, if desired.

 Stir in cold water or sparkling water for a refreshing finish.

Chill:

 Refrigerate the punch for at least 1 hour to let the flavors meld and chill thoroughly.

Serve:

 Pour the punch into glasses over ice.

 Garnish with fresh strawberry slices, orange slices, pomegranate seeds, and mint leaves.

Tips:
 Use fresh, high-quality juices for the best flavor and nutritional benefits.

 Add a splash of sparkling water just before serving for a bubbly twist.

 Adjust the sweetness to your preference by adding more or less honey/maple syrup.

Why It’s Iron-Boosting:
 Prune juice and pomegranate juice are excellent sources of iron.

 Orange juice and lemon juice are rich in vitamin C, which helps enhance iron absorption.

 Strawberries also contain a small amount of iron and add a delicious flavor.
