It’s Friday afternoon, and time for a cocktail! I made this Pomegranate Moscow Mule for my POM party guests recently, and it quickly became everyone’s new favorite drink. The combination of ginger, lime, and crunchy pomegranate seeds makes this cocktail refreshing and comforting at the same time. Not to mention the colors are ideal for any upcoming holiday meal or party.

Note: You can easily make this beverage non-alcoholic. Just skip the vodka and add some extra ginger beer or a little club soda. Regardless of which version you make, you’ll have happy guests!
