Ingredients
- 3/8 cup freshly squeezed pomegranate juice* or POM Wonderful 100% Pomegranate Juice
- 3/8 cup fresh lemonade**
- 1-1/2 oz. sparkling water
Garnish
- lemon slice
- mint sprig
Preparation
- Fill a tall tumbler glass a little more than halfway with ice cubes.
- Pour 3/8 cup fresh lemonade into the glass, up to the halfway mark.
- Slowly add pomegranate juice. (The goal is to create a mix of half lemonade and half pomegranate juice, so adjust accordingly for the size of your glass.)
- Add sparkling water.
- Stir with an iced-tea spoon or a swizzle stick.
Note
* This cocktail can be made with freshly squeezed juice from a large POM Wonderful Pomegranate or by using POM Wonderful 100% Pomegranate Juice. To juice the pomegranate, cut it in half (as you would a grapefruit) and juice using a citrus reamer or a juicer. Pour the mixture through a cheesecloth-lined strainer or sieve. One large POM Wonderful Pomegranate will produce about 1/2 cup of juice.
** To make fresh lemonade, roll six lemons on a wooden board to loosen the juice. Juice lemons using a hand reamer or electric citrus juicer; strain juice into a pitcher. Add 3/4 cup sugar and 8 cups of water, mixing well with a wooden spoon. Adjust for taste, but be sure to taste it before adding more sugar; the tartness of lemons can vary greatly).
