Ingredients

Scale

Instructions

  1. Fill a 10 oz glass with ice.
  2. Add pomegranate juice and then the grapefruit seltzer.
  3. Fill a shot glass with 2 oz Empress 1908 Gin and pour slowly on top of seltzer.
  4. Add lime wheel and enjoy.

Notes

  • Use fresh pomegranate juice. You only need a splash to get the perfect pink hue. Bottled pomegranate juice tends to look too dark. Cranberry juice works too. 
  • You can use substitute tonic water for the seltzer and add a splash of grapefruit juice, or omit the juice all together.
  • No cocktail shaker needed. To get a drink that looks like the photos, you must pour (layer) the ingredients on top of each other.
