I used to buy POM tea in a sealed glass. I bought the tea FOR the glass with lid. Do you plan to return this item at any time in the future? I would continue to buy it for sure. Thank you. Tara Dorn
Hi Tara,
Thank you for contacting POM with your question. We are sorry but the tea glass has been discontinued and POM does not have plans at this time to reinstate the glass. We always appreciate hearing feedback from our consumers and your comments will be taken into consideration. Please let us know if there is anything more we can do for you.
Healthy Wishes,

Have a POM-tastic Day!
When a recipe calls for juice from the pomegranate, about how much juice can you expect? i.e. the granita calls for 2 cups of juice…. can you expect 2 cups juice from the 4 to 6 large fruits?
And I find it important to know the amount this recipe yields… a pint, 2 pints, a quart? ….. Thanks much, Joan Michel
Hi Joan,
4 – 6 pomegranates should yield 2 cups of juice and this recipe makes 2-3 servings.
Thanks for visiting POM!
I’m desperately in need of help for an article. I need to know if you’re juicing the pomegranates for one recipe and cutting them open under water for the arils for another, you can’t use the same pomegranates for both steps…. right? …. you have to use, say, about eight pomegranates in total… 4 to 6 for this granita recipe and at least 2 others for 1/2 cup arils… apologies for bothering you so much but I’m on deadline….
Hi Joan,
Yes you need to use 4-6 for juicing and 1-2 more for the arils, and using our POM 100% Pomegranate Juice is a bit easier than squeezing the pomegranates yourself which are not in season yet.
