Ingredients

2 servings

For the simple syrup

½ cup granulated sugar
½ cup water

For the mocktail

1 cup 100% pomegranate juice, chilled
3 tbsp fresh lime juice (from about 2 limes)
2 tbsp simple syrup, or more to taste
1 cup sparkling water, chilled
ice cubes, as needed

For serving

2 tbsp pomegranate arils (optional)
2 lime wheels or wedges (optional)

Instructions

1
Combine the sugar and water in a small saucepan over medium heat, stirring until the sugar is fully dissolved, about 2–3 minutes. Remove from the heat and let the syrup cool for at least 10 minutes before using. (Extra syrup keeps refrigerated in a sealed jar for up to 2 weeks.)

Fill a cocktail shaker or large jar with a lid halfway with ice. Add the pomegranate juice, lime juice, and 2 tbsp of the cooled simple syrup. Seal and shake vigorously for 15–20 seconds until well chilled.
