POMEGRANATE MOJITOS

Pomegranate & Citrus season is still in full force, and after having made a handful of grapefruit or clementine cocktails , it was time to get some pom in the mix.

If you're a mojito lover, this is SO for you- still minty & fizzy, with just a hint of pomegranate tang!

What you need to make it happen:

- 1 1/2 ounces white rum

- 1 ounce pomegranate simple syrup

- mint leaves

- pomegranate seeds

- sprite or soda water

- ice (I freeze mint leaves & pom seeds in mine!)

How to make it happen:

Step 1: Muddle a few mint leaves with your pomegranate simple syrup

Step 2: Add rum, ice, fill with sprite (for sweeter taste) or soda water

Step 3: Garnish with fresh pomegranate seeds and mint leaves!

Step 4: Enjoy!

This drink is crisp, refreshing, and just sweet enough to be called fruity.

Like I said- I freeze mint leaves and pomegranate leaves inside ice cubes- doesn't really add any flavor, but it sure looks pretty!
