# Helpful Tips:

01 -
  • The way cinnamon hugs the citrus notes feels like a warm sweater for your tastebuds
  • Its that rare dish that looks fancy but comes together in fifteen messy minutes
  • Perfect for when you want something sweet but not the heavy post-holiday slump
02 -
  • The cinnamon will continue to infuse as it sits, so start with a light hand if you're making it ahead
  • Pomegranate seeds stain everything, including your favorite wooden spoon, so use something you can easily wipe clean
03 -
  • Use a vegetable peeler to remove the bitter white pith from citrus before segmenting for a cleaner taste
  • Room temperature fruit has more flavor, so let everything sit out for about twenty minutes before prep
