Tito’s Pomegranate Fizz Cocktail Recipe
This drink’s got a nice blend of tart pomegranate and cranberry, smoothed out by Tito’s Handmade Vodka.\
A splash of citrus and some bubbles lighten it up, while honey or simple syrup brings everything together.
Equipment
- Cocktail shaker – Great for mixing vodka, juices, and sweetener so everything’s even.
- Jigger – Makes it easy to get the right amount of each liquid.
- Strainer – I use this to keep ice chips out of the glass.
- Bar spoon – Handy for gently stirring in the sparkling water or club soda.
- Citrus juicer – Fresh lime and orange juice just taste better, trust me.
- Highball or stemless wine glass – I like a tall glass to show off the fizz.
- Ice scoop – Keeps things clean and simple when adding ice.
Honestly, having these tools ready makes things smoother and helps keep the flavors balanced.
Ingredients
- 2 oz Tito’s Handmade Vodka
- 1 oz pomegranate juice
- 1 oz cranberry juice
- 0.5 oz lime juice (fresh is best)
- 0.5 oz orange juice (fresh squeezed if you can)
- 0.5 oz orange liqueur
- 0.5 oz simple syrup or 0.5 oz honey
- 2–3 oz sparkling water or club soda
- Ice cubes
- Lime wedge or orange slice for garnish
- Fresh pomegranate arils (optional)
I’m a fan of using fresh juice here—bottled stuff can get weirdly sweet.\
The combo of tart fruit, citrus, and fizz keeps it refreshing without weighing you down.
Instructions
- Fill your shaker halfway with ice.
- Pour in the vodka, pomegranate juice, cranberry juice, lime juice, orange juice, orange liqueur, and your choice of simple syrup or honey.
- Shake it up for about 15–20 seconds until it’s chilled.
- Strain into a tall glass over fresh ice.
- Top with sparkling water or club soda.
- Give it a gentle stir with a bar spoon—don’t kill the bubbles!
- Garnish with a lime wedge, orange slice, or toss in a few pomegranate arils if you’ve got them.
I always add the sparkling water last; otherwise, you’ll lose the fizz and that’s kind of the whole point.
Notes
Sometimes I swap in honey for simple syrup if I’m in the mood for something a little warmer.\
Honey just works with the citrus and gives the drink a richer vibe.
For holidays, I’ll go heavy on the pomegranate arils and call it Tito’s Pomegranate Holiday Delight.\
It looks festive and adds a nice little pop.
If you’re into more citrus, just bump up the lime juice a bit.\
Want it lighter? Add extra sparkling water or club soda. I usually tweak the sweetness depending on how tart the fruit is that day.
Fresh juice really does make the biggest difference.\
It keeps things crisp, clean, and not overly sweet—so worth the tiny bit of extra effort.

Tasting Notes
Right away, the first sip gives off a bright pop of pomegranate. The fruit comes across crisp and a bit tart, which actually plays nicely with the smooth vodka base.
The fizz is pretty light on my tongue. It keeps things refreshing without making the drink feel too heavy.
Honestly, I like how the bubbles lift up the flavors and keep every sip lively. There’s just something about that texture.
There’s a hint of natural sweetness rounding everything out. It’s not super sugary, so I never feel bogged down after a glass.
If I really pay attention, I catch this gentle citrus note hanging out in the background. That little touch adds some freshness and keeps the drink from falling flat.
For cocktail fans (like me, I guess), this mix feels simple but hits the spot. The flavors stay clean, and the overall texture makes it easy to sip slowly or just pour for friends.
I’ve noticed the balance works best when the drink’s really cold. As the ice melts, the tartness softens a bit, and the whole thing gets smoother with each sip.
