Pomegranate Cooler
This is one of those special summer drinks that come out every now and then. Good news is pomegranate is a super healthy fruit fortified with vitamin C, K and Potassium. These ruby-like seeds also pack quite a punch when it comes to flavour!
Ingredients
750 ml white wine
4 tbsps honey
1 pc lemon
6 pcs pomegranate
1 bunch mint leaves
Method
To make the pomegranate juice – Cut open the pomegranate and pour the seeds to fill 1 cup and add into a blender with ½ cup water. Pulse a few times (this is just to break apart the seeds not blend till smooth). Sieve the juice into a cup removing the shaft. Keep in the fridge to cool. Doing this overnight might be better or you could just allow it cool for about 1 hour. Double the recipe for more juice.
Add 1½ cups pomegranate juice, 750ml white wine and honey in a pitcher. Stir well until the honey dissolves.
Pour into ice-filled glasses. Garnish with whole pomegranate seeds, lemon slices and a sprig mint.
