Ingredients
Pomegranate cocktail mixer: I have used this from Stirrings®. You can simply use store-bought pomegranate juice or freshly squeezed at home. Vodka: Vodka with a smooth and clean taste makes your cocktail better. Lemon or Lime juice: Balances the flavor. Check out the recipe card for the full list of ingredients.
Step-by-step instructions
First, moisten the rim of the serving glass using lemon wedges. Then, rim the serving glass with a Martini Rimmer or salt. Add crushed ice, pomegranate Martini cocktail mixer, vodka (or rum), lemon juice, and syrup, and shake vigorously in a cocktail shaker. Strain the chilled drink to the rimmed serving glass. Garnish with lemon slices and fresh pomegranate seeds, and enjoy!
Chef Tips
You may adjust the sweetness by adding about 0.5 of simple syrup while shaking the mix. In the recipe, you may substitute 3 oz of Pomegranate mixer with 1.5 oz of Pomegranate mixer and 1.5 oz of Peach Bellini to create a delicious drink called Pomegranate Blossom. All other ingredients remain the same. Substitute vodka with an equal amount of fruit juice, such as lemon juice, orange juice, or apple juice, for the nonalcoholic versions like pomegranate mocktails. You can even add a splash of triple sec (Cointreau) if you feel the martini is on the sour side. 1 oz means 2 tbsp.
