Ingredients
Scale
4 oz Prosecco or sparkling wine
1 oz pomegranate juice
0.5 oz vodka (optional, for cocktail version)
0.5 oz fresh lime juice
2 oz club soda or sparkling water
Pomegranate arils, for garnish
Lime wheel, for garnish
Instructions
Chill your wine glasses or tumblers before starting.
If making the cocktail version, combine vodka, pomegranate juice, and lime juice in a shaker with ice. Shake briefly until chilled.
Strain the mixture into your chilled glass filled with fresh ice.
Top the drink with Prosecco or sparkling wine.
Gently top with club soda or sparkling water for extra fizz.
Stir gently once to combine the liquids.
Garnish each Pomegranate Spritz with a few pomegranate arils and a lime wheel.
Notes
For a non-alcoholic version, skip the vodka and use ginger ale or sparkling white grape juice instead of Prosecco.
To make a large batch of the base mixer (pomegranate, lime, optional vodka), mix it ahead of time and store it in the refrigerator. Add the bubbly components just before serving.
Use high-quality pomegranate juice for the best flavor in this sparkling wine alternative.
