It’s been toasty warm here in Southern California and the forecast doesn’t sound like any relief is in sight for the rest of this new week. The weekend welcomed a perfect reason to try a new cocktail at home with some good tequila and healthy juice. POM Wonderful Pomegranate Juice sent me and the TeenieCakes.com site some bottles of juice to try.
Hubby received a generous gift from a good friend of five varieites of Patrón tequilas some months back. This was the opportunity to enjoy these tequilas and splash it up with healthy pomegranate juice with a mixologist recipe I found from Patrón.
1 oz. Patrón Silver
1/4 oz. Patrón Citrónge
POM Pomegranate Juice
Lemon squeeze and rind/slice for garnish
Pour Patrón Silver and Patrón Citrónge over ice. Add fresh POM Pomegranate Juice to taste. Add a squeeze of lemon and garnish with either an orange or lemon twist. ¡Salud!

Hi Cristina, What a lovely blog you have as well! Summer is just around the corner here in Sydney. I can’t wait to be adventurous with pomegranate based recipes again. How does pom ice cream sound? 🙂 Joe

That cocktail does look refreshing. I bet it catches up with you before you know it and the Patron Citron is good stuff.
