    Pomegranate-Mint Fizz

    So you didnt make a mint at The Game of Life and retire to Millionaire Estates? No worries,

    you can get a dose of the green stuff here. Refreshing, colorful, and quick to make, this

    cocktail has easy-breezy flavors that all your guests will love.

    About 1 hour before serving, pour the pomegranate juice into

    a cocktail pitcher. Rub the mint leaves between the palms of your

    hands for a few seconds and add them to the juice. Stir to mix

    and refrigerate.

    Just before serving, add the vodka, seltzer, and simple syrup

    to the pitcher and stir to mix. Half-fill 8 tumblers with ice, pour

    the fizz over (through a small sieve to hold back the mint leaves, if

    desired), and garnish with mint sprigs.

    MAKES 8 COCKTAILS

    Double or triple all the ingredients, refrigerating the extra to the refill pitcher as

    needed.

    Halve all the ingredients.

    Combine the pomegranate juice and mint up to 4 hours ahead; finish just

    before serving.

    3 cups pure pomegranate juice

    14cup loosely packed mint leaves

    1 cup currant vodka or other berryvodka

    34cup plain seltzer or sparkling
