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.
