Ruby Red PomaTini for Valentine's Day Cheer!

.
 .
Cheers, Salute', Ching-Ching!
.
Valentine's Day is tomorrow and here's a super cocktail recipe that's even got some healthy stuff in it . . . pomegranate juice AND liquor!  I made these pretty PomaTini's (for myself) and one on the rocks for hubby.  It's a nice sipper to sit back in front of a crackling fire in February!  So easy too:
.
.
Ruby Red PomaTini
.
2 ounces Pama Liquor
2 ounces top-shelf vodka (SKYY, Grey Goose, Ketel One)
4 ounces POM pomegranate juice
pomegranate seeds
.
Place all ingredients in a martini shaker.
Fill half-way with ice cubes (not crushed).
Shake for 30 seconds.
Pour into chilled martini glasses.
Sprinkle about 8 - 10 pomegranate seeds into the cocktail, which will float to the bottom.
Or serve on the rocks if preferred.
.

In the very top photo, look closely and you can see the pomegranate seeds on the bottom of the martini glass . . . a pretty little surprise at the end of the cocktail.


Such a beautiful bottle of pomegranate liquor!

Our little shot glasses from our summer trips to Hawaii!

And for my wonderful, romantic, Buckeye-crazed husband, this one's for you!
On the rocks in your favorite scarlet and grey glass!  
The pom seeds are floating on top of the ice cubes.   
He loved it!
