Pomtini
This is entirely my own creation. It started with my love of pomegranate and a batch of Grand Marnier I had accidentally mixed with vodka instead of tequila (I was making a big batch of Pomeritas). I love the way raspberry adds depth and a bit of sweetness to pomegranate and decided Chambord was the perfect ingredient to round out the flavors. I’ve already had two of these today. I can’t wait to share them with my girlfriends.
Pomtini (Pomegranate Martini)
2 oz pomegranate juice
2 oz vodka (to go over the top, use Pearl Persephone [pomegranate flavored] vodka)
1 oz Grand Marnier
juice of 1/2 lime
1/2 oz Chambord (black raspberry liqueur)
Combine in a cocktail shaker with ice. Shake vigorously, until the shaker is almost too cold to touch. Strain into a sugar-rimmed martini glass and serve.
Cheers!
