Pomegranate Martini
Fresh pomegranate juice can be very powerful, so a little goes a long way here. Feel free to adjust down or up from the 1 ounce listed in the recipe to suit your needs.
Ingredients
- 4.5 ounces vodka
- 3 ounce pomegranate juice
- 2.25 ounce freshly squeezed lime juice
- 1.5 ounce orange liqueur such as Cointreau
Instructions
- Combine ingredients: In a shaker filled ⅔ with ice, pour in the vodka, pomegranate juice, lime juice, and orange liqueur.
- Shake and serve: Shake to chill the cocktail for 20 seconds and then strain into a martini glass. Enjoy!
Notes
- Taste test your juice to see if it's more sour or sweet (fruits picked earlier in the season tend to be more sour, while pomegranates picked later will be sweeter).
- You might need to add a touch more orange liqueur if your pomegranate juice is on the sour side.
- If you have a lot of juice on hand and you can’t use it all up try making homemade pomegranate molasses and using it in his Whole Roasted Cauliflower recipe.
