i personally hate pomegranate juice....it looses its taste that way.
First of all give pomegranate which is ripe because then it tastes really sweet and the Egyptian varieties are sweeter than Indian.I dont know if you get them in US.
Add pomegranate to salad(could be fruit/vegetable salad) or give it in masalas like when you make masala for masala dosa towards the end add the pomegranate seeds.Add it to the cutlet.
In short if your child doesnt like pomegranate hide it in his food and give.....thats my strategy ;-).He will start liking the taste of it soon.I hope

Hi OP,

i feel it doesn't matter if my little one swallows the seeds.. She has been eating pomogramate from even before she was one. I guess she crunches the seeds or something. Is there a problem if the child swallows the seeds? Do let me know.

I have been giving pomegranates to my daughter right from when she was 9 months old. She always chews it so it has never been a problem. My paed told me it is absolutely safe as long the baby chews it (atleast a little bit) before swallowing. She also told me these seeds aid in digestion.

I give pomegranate to my daughter ever since she was a year old. She chews and eats fine. It's one of the perfect foods that helped her to start eating by herself.
