Santa's Spritzer

SERVES: 4

When it comes to Christmas cocktails for your next holiday party, we've got one that's elf-tested and Santa-approved! It combines the refreshing taste of pomegranate with just enough rum to put everyone in the holiday spirit! While Santa usually caters to the kids, this spritzer is an adult-only beverage that will have everyone "rockin' around the Christmas tree" this holiday season.

What You'll Need

4 cups ice cubes
1/4 cup white rum
1/4 cup pomegranate juice
4 cups lemon-lime soda
4 teaspoons pomegranate arils (seeds)
1 lime, cut into wedges

What to Do

Fill 4 large glasses with ice. Evenly divide the rum and pomegranate juice and mix gently. Add soda to each glass, and top with pomegranate arils.
Stir it once again and garnish each glass with a wedge of lime. Serve immediately.

Test Kitchen Tip

Ok, so you’re thinking to yourself, where do I get the pomegranate arils? You can usually find them fresh in the produce section near the cut fruit. They come in a small plastic cup or tub and boy are they tasty and look very holiday special.
