Happy Hour {Pomegranate Gimlet}

Happy Friday, friends! I’ve got one back in school *nearly* full time and the end of this week calls for celebration. This is the first cocktail I’ve tried from the new Modern Comfort Food book and it is absolutely perfect! I love it almost as much as the Empress 75. The festive red color with the green lime will make it a go-to this holiday season.

Pomegranate Gimlet

Modern Comfort Food

For 6 Drinks:

  • 1.5 cups good gin
  • 1 cup pomegranate juice
  • 1 cup lime juice
  • 1/2 cup simple syrup
  • Pom seeds and lime slices for garnish

For 2 Drinks: (We certainly did not need six, although they are quite tasty!)

  • 3 oz good gin
  • 2 oz pomegranate juice
  • 2 oz lime juice
  • 1 oz simple syrup
  • Pom seeds and lime slices for garnish

At least one hour before serving place martini glasses in freezer. For 6 drinks, combine the liquids in a large pitcher. For 2 drinks, combine in measuring cup. Fill the cocktail shaker half full with ice and add drink mixture until shaker is 3/4 full. Shake for a full 15 seconds. Pour into martini glass and garnish with a teaspoon of pom seeds and a slice of lime. Repeat with the remaining drink mix and serve ice cold.
