Ingredients

- Lemon Juice: Provides a refreshing citrusy flavor.
- Honey: Optional; I used refined sugar. Swap it with simple sugar(this jalapeno simple syrup is my choice); you may also add natural sweeteners like honey or agave.
- Salt: A pinch does more than we imagine; it combines all the flavors and enhances the overall taste.
- Sparkling Water: The secret of this recipe is the bubbling property of the sparkling water. You may substitute club soda or Sprite if you prefer.
- Pomegranate Arils: Optional, but great for garnishing.
- Optional: Stir in grated ginger or fresh rosemary for warmth when serving during the Holidays.

The Leftovers
This pomegranate spritzer is best consumed as soon as it’s made;
However, if you want to store it longer, you can refrigerate it for a day. Please note that you will lose the fizziness.
Pro Tips For Best Results
- Refrigerate All The Ingredients: This recipe is all about freshness; for the best-tasting pomegranate spritzer, chill the pomegranate juice, sparkling water, and lemon before mixing.
- The Sparkling Water: The only secret behind our recipe is the quality of the sparkling water. Make sure it is fresh. Avoid using flavored sparkling water, as it may interfere with the tangy and tart taste of the pomegranate juice. Club soda can also be used.
- Planning For The Party: Mix it in the right proportion if you are making a large batch. Mixing the juice with the sparkling water in a ratio of 1:2 or 1:3.
- Make it profound: Freeze the pomegranate juice in ice cube trays. As the cubes melt, they provide a profound taste to the drink.
