Ingredients
Scale
- 4 ounces sparkling pomegranate juice
- 3 ounces ginger beer or ginger ale
- 1 ounce fresh lime juice
- Pomegranate seeds (arils), optional for garnish
- Fresh mint leaves, a few sprigs for garnish
- Ice cubes
- 1 teaspoon simple syrup, optional
Instructions
- Fill a copper mug or highball glass with ice cubes to chill it while you prep the other ingredients.
- Place 3-4 fresh mint leaves in the glass. Using a muddler or the back of a spoon, gently press the leaves to release their aroma without tearing them apart (optional).
- Pour in 1 ounce (30 ml) of freshly squeezed lime juice.
- Add 4 ounces (120 ml) of sparkling pomegranate juice into the glass.
- Top with 3 ounces (90 ml) of ginger beer or ginger ale, pouring slowly to keep the bubbles lively.
- Taste the mocktail and stir in 1 teaspoon (5 ml) of simple syrup if you want it sweeter.
- Garnish with a few pomegranate seeds and a sprig of fresh mint. Optionally, add a lime wheel or wedge on the rim.
- Serve immediately and enjoy.
Notes
Use freshly squeezed lime juice for best flavor. Pour ginger beer slowly to preserve carbonation. Adjust sweetness with simple syrup as needed. Chill glass and ingredients for a crisper drink. Optional garnishes include basil, rosemary, lime wheel, or fresh ginger slice for variations.
