Pomegranate Lime & Mint Fizz Cocktail

Almost time for New Year’s Eve, y’all! Hope each one of y’all had a merry ole Holiday season and didn’t lose your marbles with all that last-minute Christmas shopping, feastin’ and, well…overeating. I reckon I nearly did.

We’re soon gonna be saying goodbye to the old year and welcoming in the new one with a real hullabaloo.

I’m fixing to spend New Year’s Eve with my beau and pals out here in the country – accompanied by plenty of bubbly.

So, where’s y’all planning to raise your glasses at midnight this NYE? What do ya say we add a little extra something to our fizz this year?

Most of this here Pomegranate Lime & Mint Fizz Cocktail can be whipped up at home and brought right along to your shindig.

Just toss in the bubbles when you’re ready, et voila: a deliciously refreshing NYE cocktail awaits you.

The most critical ingredient (apart from that sparkling vino) is the pomegranate syrup. Whip it up ahead of time and tote it in a small bottle or jug.

Throw in some limes, mint leaves, and pomegranate seeds (if you fancy) for garnish – all your friends will sure be surprised by this treat. Y’all have yourselves a fantastic New Year’s Eve.

See ya next year!
