Start by preparing your glass. Pour a small amount of salt onto a plate. Run the lime wedge around the rim of the glass, then dip the rim into the salt, twisting to evenly coat. Fill the glass with ice and set aside.
In a cocktail shaker filled with ice, combine the dry gin, extra dry vermouth, and pomegranate juice.
Stir the mixture gently to combine the ingredients without over-diluting the drink.
Strain the cocktail into your prepared, salt-rimmed glass filled with ice.
Garnish with a cherry and a lime slice for a spooky finishing touch.
Serve and enjoy this bewitching Blood Moon Potion as you sip under the eerie glow of the moon!
Notes
Pro Tips
For an added touch of spookiness, you can freeze the cherry and lime garnish beforehand for a chilling effect.
Use freshly squeezed pomegranate juice if possible for a more vibrant, natural flavor.
Adjust the salt rim to your liking by only coating half the glass if you prefer a subtler salty edge.
