This
recipe's emphasis on the sweet, tart flavors of fresh pomegranates
produces a straightforward but vibrant cocktail.
INGREDIENTS
- 2
ounces Fresh Squeezed Pomegranate Juice*
- 2
ounces Vodka
- 1/4
ounce Simple Syrup**
METHOD
Combine all ingredients in a mixing glass.
Shake vigorously with ice and strain into a Chilled Martini Glass.
* To make Pomegranate Juice, cut a ripe medium sized pomegranate
in half and squeeze with any conventional juicer. Each Pomegranate
should yield about 4 ounces of juice.
** Simple Syrup is made by combining equal parts superfine sugar
and water, bringing it to a boil, and letting it simmer until
it's the consistency of honey.
