Tips on Making Pomegranate Martini

• To make the best pomegranate martini, choose a premium triple sec. Cointreau is the most popular option. Also make sure to use top-shelf vodka!

• To make this drink stronger, you could use 2 ounces of vodka or gin and 2 ounces of pomegranate juice. Some people use citrus-flavored vodka rather than plain. 

• Need it without alcohol? No problem! Just omit the vodka and replace the triple sec with 2 tablespoons (1 ounce) freshly squeezed orange or clementine juice. Top with sparkling water or lemon-lime soda to taste for a delicious pomegranate mocktail.

• Add pomegranate seeds to the bottom of the glass before pouring for a little treat at the end!

• A splash of lemon juice (or lime juice) will balance out the tartness of the pomegranate juice. But, depending on your taste, a sweeter juice may need more citrus.

• Making these for the holidays? Serve it in a cinnamon sugar-rimmed glass for a festive touch.

• Pomegranate pairs well with chocolate, so enjoy this with a dessert.
