Yes, we're all well now, thanks for asking. And even though much of December felt like a wash, sometimes a beautiful cocktail is just what the doctor ordered to get back into the spirit of things. With that in mind, I share the following treasured holiday libation.
Pomegranatini
Rim your martini glass with a mixture of sugar and finely microplaned orange zest.
Fill a cocktail shaker half-way with ice and mix together the following:
1 part vodka
1/2 part triple sec
2 parts pomegranate juice
Shake well, strain into your prepared glass and garnish with a few fresh pomegranate seeds.
Like a vamped-up lipstick on pale, wintery skin, this bold ruby cocktail packs some va va voom for the holidays. And speaking of holidays, I hope you all had a nice one and may your new year be filled with great things.
Mostly I'm praying for peace.
Cheers!
