I enjoy the flavor of lemons and pomegranates so I combined the two flavors for an outdoor party drink. It turned out to be a hit with my adult guests! It was fun to let the guests attempt to figure out the exact combination of ingredients I used...pomegranate molasses was the biggest surprise as most people have not ever heard...

Time 10m

Number Of Ingredients 4

3 c ice cold vodka (i store it in the freezer so it's always ready)
1 c prepared lemonade
1/2 c pomegranate molasses (available at middle eastern grocery or in ethnic food section at larger chain store groceries).
6 slice fresh lemon, sliced thin and dipped in fine granulated sugar

Steps:

  • 1. Chill six tall glasses in the freezer about half an hour before service.
  • 2. Combine all liquid ingredients in a large bowl to combine.
  • 3. When ready to serve cocktails: Add two or three ice cubes to each chilled glass; fill with cocktail and garnish with a sugared, split, lemon slice hung on the rim...add a straw and drink up!
  • 4. Hint:If you don't have access to the pomegranta molasses you may try substituting pure pomegranate juice that has been heated until reduced by half. POM Wonderful is the best, generally available,juice brand,,,other brands are often adulterated with other juices and too much sugar added...flavor is not at all good! Also, if you can find fresh pomagranates at the store, use some of the whole seeds swirled into each beverage glass, as a tasty and pretty addition. The seeds are like small jewels floating in the liquid.

I was a little disappointed with this cocktail. The flavors just didn't come together for me. I think I'll stick to my regular margarita.

This cocktail is a bit too strong for my taste. I think I'll try it with less vodka next time.

I'm not a huge fan of cocktails, but this one was actually pretty good. The flavors were well-balanced and it wasn't too sweet.

This cocktail is a great way to use up leftover fruit. I had some oranges and lemons that were about to go bad, so I threw them in a blender with some vodka and mint and it turned out delicious!

I was disappointed with this cocktail. The flavors just didn't come together for me. I think I'll stick to my regular vodka tonic.

I love the idea of this cocktail, but I found that the mint was a bit overpowering. I think I'll try it again with less mint next time.

I was a little hesitant to try this cocktail because I'm not a big fan of vodka, but I'm so glad I did! The vodka is actually very subtle and the other flavors really shine through. This is now one of my favorite cocktails!

This Mediterranean Cocktail was a hit at my last party! The combination of fresh mint, cucumber, and citrus was so refreshing, and the vodka gave it just the right amount of kick. I'll definitely be making this again.
