POM Princess

Prepare fresh pomegranate juice, if necessary.* Fill a tall tumbler glass a little more than halfway with ice cubes. Pour 3/8 cup fresh lemonade** into the glass, up to the halfway mark. Slowly add pomegranate juice. (The goal is to create a mix of half lemonade and half pomegranate juice, so adjust accordingly for the size of your glass.) Add sparkling water. Stir with an iced-tea spoon or a swizzle stick. Serve and enjoy!

*To prepare fresh pomegranate juice, cut 2–3 large POM Wonderful Pomegranates in half and juice them with a citrus reamer or juicer. Pour the mixture through a cheesecloth-lined strainer or sieve. Set the juice aside.

**To make fresh lemonade, roll six lemons on a wooden board to loosen the juice. Juice lemons using a hand reamer or electric citrus juicer; strain juice into a pitcher. Add 3/4 cup sugar and 8 cups of water, mixing well with a wooden spoon. Adjust for taste, but be sure to taste it before adding more sugar; the tartness of lemons can vary greatly.
