Servings: 20
Ingredients
- 8 cups pomegranate juice, 100% pure
- ⅔ cup pure agave nectar, or to taste
- 4 cups vodka
- ½ cup lime juice, freshly squeezed
- 3 cups sparkling water , your favorite flavor
- pomegranate seeds, or orange slices, lime slices, fresh rosemary (optional garnishes)
Instructions
- In a serving pitcher or punch bowl, combine all ingredients except for sparkling water and garnishes. Keep chilled.
- When ready to serve, gently pour in sparkling water and garnish as desired. Serve over cups filled with ice. Enjoy!
Notes
- Use 100% pure pomegranate juice, if you can find it. It makes a delicious difference in the results; however, in a pinch, you can use pomegranate mixed juice.
- Be sure to squeeze your own fresh limes; the bottled lime juices won’t taste as fresh.
- We opt for agave nectar for our sweetener, as it’s less involved than making simple syrup, and it’s fairly neutral in flavor.
- If desired, you can use lemon-lime flavored soda in place of sparkling water.
- Garnish away! We chose fresh pomegranate arils and slices of citrus; this is the fun part, so feel free to use your imagination.
- Be sure all your ingredients are chilled, and serve with ice. Cold tastes way better than room temperature.
- For a non-alcoholic version, omit the vodka and add more sparkling water.
- This recipe is part of our Cocktail Recipes Collection.
- We love serving this festive cocktail alongside small bites such as our Pumpkin Bacon Crostini With Cranberries or Cranberry Brie Bites.
