Ingredients

Instructions

  • In a cocktail shaker filled with ice, add the rosemary vodka, pomegranate juice, lemon juice, cranberry juice, and simple syrup if desired.
  • Shake vigorously for 15–20 seconds until well-chilled.
  • Strain into a chilled martini or coupe glass for a refined presentation, or pour over ice in a rocks glass for a more relaxed style.
  • Top with a sprinkle of pomegranate seeds and a sprig of fresh rosemary for a festive and aromatic touch.
  • Infuse the vodka: Combine 1 cup of vodka with 1–2 sprigs of fresh rosemary in a sealed container. Let it infuse for 24–48 hours, shaking occasionally. Strain out the rosemary before use.

Notes

Pro Tips

  • Rosemary infusion: Taste the vodka after 24 hours to check the intensity of the infusion; longer infusions result in stronger herbal notes.
  • Glass chilling: Place your glass in the freezer beforehand to keep the cocktail at the perfect temperature.
  • Adjust sweetness: Skip the simple syrup for a tart drink, or add more for a sweeter profile.
