Pomegranate Ginger Fizz

Deep colour, real bite. The most grown-up-looking drink on this list and one of the quickest.

Ingredients

  • 2 oz pomegranate juice
  • 0.5 oz fresh lime juice
  • 4 oz spicy ginger beer
  • Pomegranate seeds and a lime wedge, to garnish

Method

  1. 1Fill a highball glass with ice.
  2. 2Add the pomegranate and lime juice.
  3. 3Top with ginger beer and stir once from the bottom.
  4. 4Float pomegranate seeds on top and add a lime wedge.

Notes

  • Pomegranate juice is tannic, which is exactly why this tastes structured rather than sweet.
  • Use a properly spicy ginger beer; a sweet one leaves the drink with nowhere to go.
  • The seeds are worth the effort — they keep releasing flavour as you drink.

Make one of these next

  • Apple Cider Mule

    A mule with cider in place of the vodka. Autumn's best drink and it takes three minutes.

  • Moscow Mule Mocktail

    Ginger, lime and bite. The mule loses less to going alcohol-free than almost any other classic.

  • Cranberry Orange Spritzer

    Tart, bright and barely sweet. Two minutes, and it looks like an occasion.
