It’s a known fact that anything poured into a wine or a cocktail glass immediately makes it taste ten times fancier.
This past Sunday I wanted to treat myself but didn’t really feel like wine so I did just this-
Sipping slowly on the reddish pink effervescent liquid instantly made me feel calm and cared for.
This Cran-Pomegranate Kombucha Mocktail is just the drink you need to treat yourself this holiday season!
Made with just a handful of simple ingredients, it’s easy to mix up for festivities and hard not to love.
Grab a pretty glass and get ready to fill it with red & green and probiotics.
What’s your drink of choice?
To be honest, I have’t had a cocktail in year, guys, YEARS, but back when I used to sip on them, I always ordered a cosmo, not too, sweet, please.
This cocktail is simple, lightly sweet, and easy to mix up.
I used a mix of cranberry and pomegranate juice to with kombucha in this recipe for a sweet, tart, bubbly blend!
Add fresh rosemary for some earthy herbed intrigue.
If you can’t find pomegranate juice, sub more cranberry instead for a similar taste.
If you or someone you know wants to get into kombucha but swears it tastes like vinegar, this might be the perfect kombucha intervention.
Fresh juice tones tone the acidity of the fermented tea and adds taste bud-friendly sweetness.
Personally, I prefer the juice light here to let the kombucha shine.
You’re too tasty to mask, booch.
For more sweetness, taste and add more juice to achieve the amount that works for you.
I might have to mix this up for my parents, who aren’t sold on the whole kombucha thing yet.
There’s still time!
I’ve never been a bar tender, but I feel like they would agree when I say that drinks are all about the muddling.
The key to this mocktail is to really smush the pomegranate seeds and rosemary at the bottom of each glass so you have a nice base for the kombucha/juice blend to pour over.
If you, like me, don’t own a mortar and pestle, no worries. I used the back of a spoon to muddle mine.
Careful, the pomegranate seeds are messy!
After mixing one up today, I looked in the mirror to find flecks of red all over my face and truly thought I might have contracted chicken pox at the age of 30.
Then I remembered, Pomegranate.
I love using this MTO Kombucha Cran-Pomegranate as the kombucha base to these mocktails.
The flavor is one of my favorites lately, subtly sweet, with some of my favorite seasonal red fruits.
