For some reason the Hill Team cannot get enough of pomegranate cocktails. They not only look and taste terrific, but are also healthy.
Here is a new favorite, a result of mix and match, trial and tasting. Love the research, after work!
Crimson Sunset
Ingredients
2 cups of your favorite vodka (a good spot for an inexpensive brand) and we prefer Organic Nation from Oregon.
1 cup of POMMA Pomegranate juice
1/2 cup of orange liqueur (more or less to taste)
1/4 cup of freshly squeezed lime juice
Directions
Mix all of the above in a glass pitcher.
Fill a highball glass with cracked ice and add the cocktail mix.
Garnish with a lime wedge or wheel.
Should serve 4, but seems to only serve 2 or 3 since it is difficult to drink only one.
Be careful as they do sneak up on you.
The fun of this drink is that you can be innovative.
For a Mexican sunset, substitute Tequila. We love Senior Rio.
For a Caribbean Sunset, use any rum, (spiced rum is delicious) and an orange or pineapple garnish – even a paper umbrella.
You can make up your own name and change the citrus for your own signature cocktail.
Cheers!
