This homemade Creamy Pomegranate Vinaigrette is so simple and flavorful. Simply combine all ingredients in a high-speed blender (like a Vitamix) and you have a sweet and tangy dressing all wrapped up into one pretty pink color! Yields 1 cup.
I’m always determined to make a dressing from scratch. Because that’s just how I do. So when I first had pomegranate dressing it was love at first bite and I immediately set out to make it at home. But first, would you just look at that color? It’s my favorite shade of pink. And I wouldn’t mind a nail polish, blush and ballet flats in this color please and thank you.

- pomegranate arils
