2 servings
For the pomegranate-honey syrup
- ¼ cup pomegranate juice, 100% pure
Ingredient noteLow Residue diets limit fruit juices with pulp, but juice carries only a trace of the fruit's fiber, and just a small amount of pomegranate juice is used here, so it is likely Low Residue. If you prefer to always avoid pomegranate juice, please tap it and change its rating to Red.
- 1 tbsp honey
For the cocktail
- 3 oz blanco tequila (100% agave)
- 1 cup fresh orange juice (from about 3 medium oranges)
Ingredient noteLow residue diets limit the fiber in fruit. Juice has almost none of it and this recipe uses about 1/2 cup of orange juice per serving, so a pulp-free juice here is likely Low Residue. If you prefer to always avoid orange juice, please tap it and change its rating to Red.
- ice cubes, as needed
For serving
- 2 orange slices, for garnish (optional)

Instructions
- 1
Combine the pomegranate juice and honey in a small saucepan over medium heat, stirring until the honey fully dissolves, about 2 minutes. Remove from heat and let the syrup cool for at least 10 minutes until it reaches room temperature — it will thicken slightly as it cools.

Fill two highball glasses with ice cubes. Pour 1.5 oz of tequila into each glass, then divide the fresh orange juice evenly between the two glasses and stir briefly to combine.
