Serves 1. Yum! Sat Jan 27 14:19:30 -0800 2007 69347 Kaisgraham 1 2234139 Sounds more like a pomegrante sour. Of course I am a traditionalist, a martini is only a martini if it has gin and vermouth. :-) Sat Jan 27 18:30:27 -0800 2007 2233620 40841 fafner 2 2234713 I'm with you. It's a cocktail, not a martini, unless it is only gin, vermouth, and bitters. Sun Jan 28 02:24:05 -0800 2007 2234139 10732 JMF 1 2234354 2 oz.

Is it in stores? Thanks! Tue Jul 10 20:53:38 -0700 2007 2234354 111031 Debi26 1 2257713 I made pom cocktails recently and they were a hit. Pom juice, vodka and triple sec. Don't worry about portions, just mix a bit of each and you are set. Or pour one for yourself and adjust accordingly. Cheers!

Made a pitcher for a party and it was a huge hit. Sun Feb 04 14:06:47 -0800 2007 2233620 12450 Sgt Snackers 1 2265228 You've got to try this one - the PomIranian. WOW. http://www.chowhound.com/topics/358294?query=pomiranian A teeny bit more work but oh, so worth it....

Sun Jul 29 16:10:51 -0700 2007 2265228 78059 RosieN 1 5208961 I grow pomegranates at home in Oakland. It's a beautiful tree and produces several quarts of arils in October; due to climate, they are stronger and not as sweet as the commercially available varieties. You can get good pomegranates this time of year in the farmer's markets. Here's a purist recipe with gin and without the sour: 2-3 parts gin (Plymouth, Hendricks, Sapphire) 1 part Pama liqueur shake over ice; garnish with pomegranate arils If that's too dry, can add pomegranate syrup if you can find one made with real pomegranate (Monin is OK, not great). I make my own with The Perfect Puree's frozen pomegranate-thaw and stir in enough sugar to saturate fully (about 4 to 1). If it's too strong, can add Pom juice (or squeeze your own in season). I also have a daiquiri and punch if anyone is interested. Wed Nov 25 19:18:05 -0800 2009 2233620 148549 ellenmmartin
