Ingredients
- 8 mint leaves
- 1 ounce lime juice
- ½ ounce Simple Syrup* See Notes
- 1 or 2 lime wedges
- 1 ounce pomegranate juice
- 1½ ounces white rum
- crushed ice as needed
- club soda as needed
- Mint sprig for garnishing
- lime wedge for garnishing
- pomegranate arils for garnishing
Instructions
- Add the mint leaves, lime juice, simple syrup, and lime wedges to a highball cocktail glass and muddle to release the flavor of the mint and limes. Tip - If you don’t have a muddler, the handle of a wooden spoon usually works pretty well or you can slap and roll the mint between your palms to release the flavor.
- Pour in the pomegranate juice.
- Fill the glass all the way to the top with crushed ice and add the rum. Stir with a bar spoon.
- Top off with club soda and garnish with a mint sprig, lime wedge, and pomegranate arils. Add a straw next to the mint garnish and enjoy immediately.
Notes
- *Simple syrup is simply a mixture of 1 part sugar to 1 part water, heated or boiled together until the sugar dissolves, less than 2 minutes usually. I suggest making the simple syrup with 1/2 cup granulated sugar combined with 1/2 cup water. You will have extra, but it keeps for ages in the fridge and you can use it for future cocktails.
- Recipe is intended for those for which alcohol is legal and appropriate.
