Looking for a pretty holiday beverage to please your guests of all ages? This pomegranate mint mocktail is simple, fresh, and festive! Juicy red pomegranate seeds dance in sparkling water like little gems, perfectly complimented by refreshing green mint leaves.
Weather you’re looking for a family friendly beverage, a fun way to hydrate, or a fizzy drink to enjoy between a weekend booze-fest, this drink will do the trick! It’s hydrating and refreshing, and sweet and delicious. I love taking advantage of the short pomegranate season by enjoying them in pretty much every meal, and this drink is truly a result of that! They’re gorgeous little morsels, bursting with sweet juice. I can’t help myself from picking some up whenever they’re on sale.
They’re also quite perishable, so a beverage like this is a great use for them when they’re on their way out. Smash those little gems up and extract those bright red juices even when they aren’t at peak freshness, they’ll still shine in this mocktail! Also, my favorite bonus tip for pretty garnish! Try freezing a handful of pomegranate seeds. Toss them in for a pretty garnish that doubles as a chilling agent without watering down your drink! You can even enjoy them once you finish your drink, they’re a delicious frozen treat.
