Ingredients

2 oz gin
1 oz fresh pomegranate juice
½ oz fresh lemon juice
½ oz simple syrup
Club soda to top
Ice cubes
Pomegranate seeds for garnish
Fresh rosemary sprig optional

Instructions

Fill the cocktail shaker with ice.
Add gin, pomegranate juice, lemon juice, and simple syrup to the shaker.

Shake hard for 10-15 seconds until the shaker feels cold.
Fill a highball glass with fresh ice.
Strain the mixture into the glass through a fine mesh strainer.

Top with club soda and stir gently with a bar spoon.
Garnish with pomegranate seeds and a rosemary sprig if desired.

Notes

The drink tastes best with fresh pomegranate juice. Store-bought juice works too, but check the label for added sugar.

For a stronger pomegranate flavor, muddle 1 tablespoon of seeds in the shaker before adding other ingredients.

Make it non-alcoholic by replacing gin with extra club soda.

Store simple syrup in the fridge for up to 2 weeks in an airtight container.

Tasting Notes

The Pomegranate Gin Fizz offers a bright, crisp taste with a perfect balance of sweet and tart flavors. The botanical notes from the gin blend smoothly with the fresh pomegranate juice.

A light, bubbly texture comes from the club soda, creating a refreshing mouthfeel. The drink starts with hints of juniper and citrus, followed by the rich pomegranate flavor.

Key Flavor Notes:

Fresh pomegranate
Juniper berries
Citrus zest
Light floral hints

The cocktail has a beautiful ruby-red color that sparkles in the glass. Its aroma combines fresh fruit with subtle gin botanicals.

The finish is clean and dry, with a gentle sweetness that doesn’t overpower. Each sip leaves a pleasant mix of pomegranate and herbal notes on the palate.

Substitute

Different ingredients can replace pomegranate juice and gin in this cocktail. Each swap creates a new taste while keeping the drink’s fizzy nature.

Non-alcoholic choices:

Replace gin with club soda or tonic water
Swap pomegranate juice with cranberry or cherry juice
Use ginger ale instead of gin for a sweeter drink

Alcoholic alternatives:

Vodka makes the drink lighter and cleaner
White rum adds sweetness
Prosecco or champagne creates an extra bubbly effect

For a less tart drink, mix in apple juice or white grape juice instead of pomegranate. These options make the cocktail smoother and more mild.

Adding fresh lemon or lime juice helps balance sweetness when using fruit juice substitutes. Start with 1/4 ounce and adjust to taste.

Remember to keep the same measurements when swapping ingredients. This keeps the drink balanced and prevents any one flavor from taking over.

A dash of grenadine can boost the red color if using clear substitutes like apple juice. Add it slowly to control the sweetness level.
