- 1 1/2 oz. vodka
- 1 1/2 oz. grapefruit juice
- 1/2 oz. sour mix, or 1/2 oz. freshly squeezed
- lime
- 1/2 oz. simple syrup (equal parts sugar and
- cold water dissolved together)
- Spiraled orange rind for garnish

*This cocktail can be made with freshly squeezed juice from a POM Wonderful Pomegranate or by using POM Wonderful 100% Pomegranate Juice, which is widely available at retail. To juice the pomegranate, cut it in half (as you would a grapefruit) and squeeze the juice using a citrus reamer or juicer. Pour mixture through a cheesecloth-lined strainer or sieve. One large POM Wonderful Pomegranate will produce about 1/2 cup of juice.
