Garnish & Finish

1 tbsp Granulated sugar (for rim)1 piece Lime wedge (for rimming and garnish)1 tsp Pomegranate seeds (arils) for garnish

Method

Prepare the glass

Sugar rim

Pour the tablespoon of granulated sugar onto a small plate. Run the lime wedge around the rim of a chilled coupe or martini glass (or rocks glass if preferred) to moisten it, then dip the rim into the sugar and twist to evenly coat. Set the glass aside to dry briefly.

Mix the cocktail

Add 2 oz Absolut vodka, 0.75 oz triple sec, 0.75 oz fresh lime juice, 2 oz pomegranate juice and 0.25 oz simple syrup into a cocktail shaker.

Fill the shaker with ice (about 4–6 cubes) and secure the lid.

Shake vigorously for 10–15 seconds, until the outside of the shaker is frosty and well chilled.

Double-strain (if desired) into the prepared sugar-rimmed glass over fresh ice (for a rocks presentation) or without ice into the chilled glass for a cleaner martini-style presentation.

Garnish

Drop 1 teaspoon of pomegranate seeds into the drink or float them on top. Optionally express a lime peel over the cocktail and drop the wedge on the rim or in the glass.

Serve

Serve immediately while cold. Stir gently if served over ice. Enjoy.
