Pomegranate, Honey & Ginger Refresher

Jan 11, 2014 by pixeljuice

Pomegranate, Honey & Ginger RefresherJust because the holidays are over doesn’t mean you have to give up wine and liquor.  Even if your resolution is to lose weight, there’s room in a healthy diet for a cocktail now and then.  One of my favorite, original cocktails is my Pomegranate, Honey & Ginger Refresher.  Mix it up in minutes, and for just 160 calories, you’ll be satisfied and happy in no time.  I guarantee my work!

Ingredients

½ cup/3 oz. pomegranate seeds
1 tsp. honey
½ tsp. grated ginger
1 Tbsp. lemon juice
1 oz. vodka

Splash of club soda

Directions

Place pomegranate seeds, honey, ginger and lemon juice in a cocktail shaker.  Muddle the mixture very well to extract as much juice from the pomegranate seeds as possible.  Add vodka and shake.  Fill a martini glass with ice.  Strain mixture over the ice.  If you desire, stir in a few of the pomegranate seeds. Pour in a splash (2 oz. or so) of club soda, give it a quick stir and enjoy!

Yield:  1 cocktail
Time:  5 minutes
