I want my blogs to be real estate related, or significant to my area. I thinks it's weird when agents blog about their family, or news in another part of the country. However... I'm going to make an exception today. I found a great holiday drink that has been the HIT OF TWO OFFICE PARTIES!!! The Pomegranate Mojito.
It is so simple to make, tastes great, and is rather unusual.
Here's all you need:
- 2 cups sugar
- 1 cup water
- 40 +/- fresh mint leaves
- 1 liter club soda
- 4 cups white rum
- 2 cups fresh squeezed lime juice
- 2 cups purchased pomegranate juice
Boil 2 cups sugar in 1 cup water with all mint leaves in a sauce pan until sugar dissolves, stirring often. Turn off heat and steep for 2-5 minutes. Stain and cool syrup (discard mint). Combine syrup with all other ingredients into a pitcher. Refrigerate or add ice and serve in martini glasses.
For added effect, combine 8 finely chopped mint leaves to 1/4 cup sugar and mix. Put sugar mixture in a dish. Rub the rim of each glass with a wedge of lime then dip into the mint mixture. Garnish with a fresh wedge of lime.
