Pomegranate Orange Scones

So…I have a confession to make.  I cheated on this recipe.  In a couple of ways, actually. Allow me to explain.  1. I didn’t come up with this flavor combination on my own.  2. I used an existing recipe and adapted it to a scone recipe. 3. I used my new Vitamix. (While perhaps not…

Lemon and blueberry obviously complement each other well. So the only real adventure in this…
