Default Uses for these exotic juices?

No alcoholic drinks, thank you. (Other drinks are fine.)

I was in an Indian store a while back and saw biggish bottles of the following:

Pomegranate juice drink
Lychee juice
Gooseberry juice

I tried Googling on "uses," but it didn't help. (You have to say that rather than "recipe" - even with gooseberry juice, I kept coming up with the recipe for MAKING the juice!)

There were different syrups being sold as well, but with those, I easily found uses in chowhound.

Got any ideas? Thanks.

Lenona.

Pomegranate juice can go very well with beef. It's done in Iranian/Persian cooking. One example:

But pomegranate juice would be better than pomegranate juice drink. One could use pomegranate molasses/syrup. Whether pomegranate juice drink would be OK will depend on how much pomegranate juice is in it, and how much added sugar. Pomegranate juice is very sweet, typically about 15% sugar. It's also sour, so it's good for a sweet and sour effect in cooking.

Lychee juice might go well in a lychee and coconut pudding. Maybe based on tapioca balls. Or something like this: http://www.veggiebelly.com/2010/02/t...e-pudding.html with lychee juice instead of lychees.

If all else fails, just drink them.

Pomegranate juice is supposed to be very healthy for a person. Prob taste pretty good mixed with a Sprite or better just use it dust off a big mug of ice water. There ya go.
