Ginger Syrup and Pomegrante Cocktail

I begin this with a desperate plea for summer to arrive. I’m ready for you, summer. I’ve got my spritzer in hand and hot beaches in mind. Unfortunately, these days I need my other hand for my umbrella.

Ingredients (for one cocktail)

• 150-200ml (1/2 -3/4 cup) tonic water
• 2 ounces vodka
• 1 tablespoon ginger syrup
• A handful of fresh pomegranate seeds
• Ice

Directions

1. Place pomegranate seeds in a glass and lightly crush them with a spoon.
2. Drop in as much ice as you’d like.
3. Add vodka and ginger syrup.
4. Top off with tonic water. Stir and serve.
