Squeeze in the lemon juice, adding a bit of sunshine to the mix.
Add the pomegranate juice, watching the rich red swirl with the clear spirits, like a dance floor lighting up.
Shake it! Shake it like you’re at the Hudson Valley’s most happening party. Do the twist, the shake, and let the rhythm take over.
Strain this ruby-hued potion into your chilled martini glass.
Garnish with a sprinkle of pomegranate seeds and a lemon twist – like confetti and streamers adorning your drink.
Top it off with a sparkler, and light it up as you toast to health, happiness, and holidays.
