Absolutely delicious and refreshing, this Pomegranate Martini is a fresh take on the Cosmopolitan. Use pure pomegranate juice (instead of cranberry), fresh lime juice, orange liqueur and vodka, no sweetener, and a dash of ginger bitters. Perfect for a Holiday cocktail party, or your Fall and Winter happy hour. Super easy to make, in under 5 minutes! Best part for me: there is no sparkling anything in this drink!
Can you make this Pomegranate Martini without the ginger bitters? Yes, you can, but you NEED to try this with the ginger bitters to know what you're missing! It adds a scent of Christmas in your glass that your nose picks up on upon your first sip and adds to the complexity of overall flavor. It takes this drink from cocktail to COCKTAIL! Buy ginger bitters online, here. It might be a bit difficult to find in store, although this flavor of bitters does show up around the holidays more often.
Use your favorite vodka and your favorite orange liqueur. I'm using orange curaçao in mine presently, but I've also made them with Cointreau with basically the same results. Fresh squeezed lime juice is a must! If you're going to serve these at a cocktail party, squeeze a bunch of limes ahead of time so you're ready to shake each drink on request. Also use unsweetened, unalterred pure pomegranate juice. The drink results in a fresh naturally tart but just sweet enough refresher.
