Pomegranate Martini
This cocktail is a twist on the classic Cosmopolitan Martini, the addition of the Grand Mariner makes it special and very tasty. A lot of people have told me that they don’t care too much for Pomegranate Juice, but once they taste this, they love it. This also makes a great festive cocktail for the Holidays, as it’s beautiful deep red color adds to the season. Note: I can never get my Pomegranate seeds to slide onto the tooth pick properly, so I use an Orange Twist as a garnish.
