National cocktail day wsa last week. Paul and I sipped these to commemorate the occasion. They were delicious!
As you can see from the picture. we did not rim the glass with sugar.
Enjoy.
Pomegranate Orange Martini
6 ounces pomegranate juice
2 ounces vodka
1 ounce Cointreau
1 ounce orange juice
1/4 cup granulated sugar for decorating the rims of the glasses (if desired)
If decorating the rims of the glasses with sugar, pour the sugar into a thin layer on a small saucer. Moisten the rims of two martini glasses (I rub an orange or lemon wedge around the rims) and carefully dip the martini glasses rims down the sugar until the rims are coated with sugar. Set martini glasses right-side up and allow sugar to set (should take just a couple of minutes).
Add pomegranate juice, vodka, Cointreau, and orange juice to an ice-filled cocktail shaker. Shake vigorously for about 15 seconds. Strain mixture into martini glasses and serve immediately.
