This is something we came up with after trying to find a drink that used pomegranate juice. We used pomegranate juice that was flavored with cherries. The measurements we used were with a 1.5 ounce shot glass - 1.5 ounces is equivalent to 3 Tablespoons. The sugar on the rim gives it a pleasant sweetness that smooths the martini. Based on a martini recipe from an Iraqi restaurant.Enjoy! Ingredients:
3 ounces vodka |
1 dash lemon juice |
4 1/2 ounces pomegranate juice |
1 1/2 ounces maraschino cherry juice, for those that like drinks on the sweeter side (optional) |
1 maraschino cherry (to garnish) |
sugar, for rim |
Directions:
1. Pour first 4 ingredients in a shaker (or use two glasses if you do not have a shaker - put one inside the other) with crushed ice and shake.
2. Run lime around the rim of a martini glass and coat with sugar.
3. Pour contents into martini glass and garnish with cherry and lemon rind.
