Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup Pomegranate Juice (100% juice)
- 1/2 cup Fresh Lime Juice
- 1/4 cup Simple Syrup (adjust to taste)
- 1/4 cup Fresh Mint Leaves, gently muddled
- 2 cups Sparkling Water or Club Soda, chilled
- Ice cubes
- Pomegranate arils and mint sprigs for garnish
Instructions
- Place the mint leaves in the bottom of a sturdy glass. Gently press them with a muddler or the back of a wooden spoon. You want to release the oils, not shred the leaves.
- Add the pomegranate juice, fresh lime juice, and simple syrup to the glass.
- Stir well to combine the juices and syrup with the muddled mint.
- Fill the glass completely with ice cubes.
- Top each glass with chilled sparkling water or club soda.
- Gently stir once more from bottom to top to mix the soda without losing too much fizz.
- Garnish with a few pomegranate arils and a fresh mint sprig before you serve.
Notes
- If you prefer a less sweet drink, reduce the simple syrup to two tablespoons.
- For a stronger mint flavor, let the muddled mint sit in the juice mixture for about five minutes before adding ice.
- You can make a large batch of the juice mixture ahead of time, storing it in the refrigerator. Add the sparkling water just before serving.
