The Pomepolitan

Pomepolitan is a tangy, modern take on the classic Cosmopolitan that swaps out traditional vodka for earthy mezcal and cranberry for rich pomegranate. It builds a bright, floral base by combining 1.5 oz of Mezcal Rosaluna, 1 oz of POM juice, 0.75 oz of Italicus Liqueur, and 0.25 oz of fresh lime juice in a mixing tin. Shaken well with ice until thoroughly chilled, the deep red mixture is strained elegantly into a sleek coupe glass. This fruit-forward, smoky sipper is finished simply with a perfect orange twist to express its vibrant citrus oils.

Ingredients:

  • 1.5 oz Mezcal Rosaluna

  • 1 oz POM juice

  • 0.75 oz Italicus Liqueur

  • 0.25 oz Lime juice

  • Garnish: Orange twist

Instructions:

  • Pom is the literal bomb, and this drink is no different. If you thought ordering a Cosmo at a bar was classy, try making your guests a Posmo at your home bar. You’re welcome.

  • Build your liquids in a mixing tin with some ice. Shake well and strain into a coupe. Garnish with the perfect orange twist.
