Muddle the Mint and Pomegranate: In a shaker, gently muddle the mint leaves and pomegranate seeds. Don't smash them too hard – just enough to mix their flavors.
Mix the Drink: Add whiskey, lemon juice, and simple syrup to the shaker.
Shake It Up: Fill the shaker with ice and shake it like you mean it, for about 20 seconds.
Strain and Serve: Strain the mixture into a glass filled with ice. You can use a fine strainer if you don't want seeds in your drink.
Garnish: Add a few mint leaves or a lemon twist for that extra zing.
