Ingredients

1 oz. freshly squeezed pomegranate juice* or POM Wonderful 100% Pomegranate Juice

1 1/2 oz. vodka

1 1/2 oz. grapefruit juice

1/2 oz. sour mix, or 1/2 oz. freshly squeezed lime

1/2 oz. simple syrup (equal parts sugar and cold water dissolved together)

Spiraled orange rind for garnish

Ice cubes

  2. Garnish with spiraled orange rind.

*This cocktail can be made with freshly squeezed juice from a POM Wonderful Pomegranate or by using POM Wonderful 100% Pomegranate Juice, which is widely available at retail. To juice the pomegranate, cut it in half (as you would a grapefruit) and squeeze the juice using a citrus reamer or juicer. Pour mixture through a cheesecloth-lined strainer or sieve. One large POM Wonderful Pomegranate will produce about 1/2 cup of juice.
