For the shaved coconut ice:

Preparation
For the coconut ice:
Whisk the coconut cream, yogurt, melted lemon sorbet and the zest and freeze in ice cube trays. Remove the coconut ice cubes 15 minutes before serving and place in a plastic bag and beat with a rolling pin until crushed.
For serving:
Wet the rims of pretty glasses with a lemon wedge and dip into the "just pomegranate powder."
Blend just a little bit of the crushed ice with the Pom juice (about a tablespoon or more if you prefer) per person. Pour this mixture into pretty glasses and top off with the remainder of the crushed coconut ice.
The idea here is for the crushed coconut ice to just melt into the Pom juice and then to enjoy!

Note
* The "just pomegranate powder" can be found on the internet, just Google it. I really don't know whether I am at liberty to post a link here!!!However, if there are any requests to do so I will leave a comment here with the information!
** The coconut cream can be obtained from practically any Asian store but if you cannot find it, then use coconut milk.
I could not wait to drink this sweet libation after I took several pictures of it. I loved it when the coconut ice just barely melted into that sea of magenta heaven,(meaning the Pom juice of course).Tasting the pomegranate powder and the shavings of the "creme" at the beginning and then suddenly the Pom juice were so inexplicably satisfying! What a surprisingly delicious quench to my rather urgent thirst !
