- Whisk the cream, vanilla, ginger syrup, sugar and 1 tsp cinnamon in a large bowl until thickened and just holding peaks. Gently fold in the meringue and two-thirds of the pomegranate seeds, chopped ginger and mint until just mixed.
- Spoon into 6 small glasses, then top with the remaining ginger, pomegranate seeds and mint. Decorate with a dusting of icing sugar mixed with a pinch of cinnamon to serve.
- Tip: To remove the seeds from the pomegranate, cut off the top, then cut down the sides and pull open the flesh. Tap the skin firmly with a wooden spoon.
