Method
Gather Ingredients: Make sure all ingredients are fresh and ready to go. This helps streamline the process and ensures a delicious outcome!
Combine Ingredients: In a cocktail shaker, add 2 oz of vodka, 1 oz of pomegranate juice, 1 oz of triple sec, and 0.5 oz of fresh lime juice.
Shake it Up: Fill the shaker with ice. Secure the lid and shake vigorously for about 15 seconds. This chills the ingredients and combines the flavors.
Strain into Glass: Using a strainer, pour the mixture into a chilled martini glass. This will ensure a smooth drink without any ice shards.
Garnish: Drop a few pomegranate seeds into the glass for a pop of color. Add a lime wheel on the rim for that extra touch.
Serve and Enjoy: Your Pomegranate Martini is ready to be enjoyed! Sip and savor the sweet and tangy flavor.
Variations
Pomegranate Mimosa: Substitute sparkling wine for vodka for a brunch-friendly drink.
Spicy Pomegranate Martini: Add a slice of jalapeƱo to the shaker for a kick.
Non-Alcoholic Version: Replace vodka and triple sec with sparkling water and increase the pomegranate juice.
