The Ingredients
- Pomegranate Juice: Today, I made this spritzer using homemade pomegranate juice. However, you can also use store-bought pomegranate juice; ensure the ingredients list mentions 100% juice in the packaging.
- Lemon Juice: Provides a refreshing citrusy flavor and taste that complements this beverage. You can also use lemon juice.
- Sparkling Water: The secret of this recipe is the bubbling property of the sparkling water. You may substitute Sprite if you prefer.
- Sugar: I used refined sugar, as it does not alter the flavors, but you may also add natural sweeteners like honey or agave.
- Salt: A pinch does more than we imagine; it combines all the flavors together and enhances the overall taste.
- Optional: Stir in either grated ginger or fresh rosemary for enhanced taste.

Tips and Tricks 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(try this mango juice version, too) with the sparkling water in a ratio of 1:2 or 1:3 would be a clever idea for achieving the perfect balance of flavors.
- Make it Sweeten: The pomegranate's tartness works well for this recipe, but if you prefer to enhance its sweetness, you may add simple syrup or honey.
- Make it profound: Freeze the pomegranate juice in ice cube trays. As the cubes melt, they provide a profound taste to the drink.
