We're celebrating the season with a delicious and festive holiday cocktail recipe. This Poinsettia Pomegranate Martini is an easy, delicious, and refreshing drink that's perfectly styled for the season.
Start by adding a couple teaspoons of pomegranate seeds to the bottom of your martini glass. Set aside.
In a cocktail shaker filled with ice, add the gin, pomegranate juice, fresh lime juice, and simple syrup. Shake vigorously.
Strain into your prepared martini glass. Garnish with a fresh lime slice.
Notes
*You can use vodka if you prefer. However, I highly recommend the gin, even if you're not a fan. When combined with the pomegranate juice and lime juice, it's the perfect complement and very subtle.You can get my recipe for simple syrup HERE. It's so simple to make, there's no need to buy it.
