This ruby-red showstopper is loaded with pomegranate polyphenols, anti-inflam- matory ginger, and vitamin C from fresh lime. The "confetti" of pomegranate seeds and floating cranberries looks like edible or- naments, and at just 74 calories per glass, you
can toast guilt-free all season long. Plus the ginger gives it a spicy kick while improving digestion. This recipe is perfect for hosting, Dry January prep, or any time you want a festive drink that feels special and intentional.

‍

Ingredients:

Base

3 cups 100% pomegranate juice
1½ cups cranberry juice (unsweetened if possible)
½ cup fresh lime juice
¼ cup grated fresh ginger
6–7 cups sparkling water (plain or lime-flavored)
Ice

Superfood “Confetti”

1 cup pomegranate seeds
1 cup fresh cranberries
2 limes, thinly sliced
Fresh mint sprigs
Rosemary sprigs (optional, for a wintery aroma)

‍

Directions:

Stir pomegranate juice, cranberry juice, lime juice, and ginger in a large pitcher or punch bowl. Let sit for 10 minutes so the ginger releases its flavor (this base can be refrigerated up to 24 hours ahead).

Mix in sparkling water and ice just before serving.

Serve in clear glasses (coupe, flute, or tumbler).

Top each glass with pomegranate seeds, cranberries, lime slices, and mint.

Finish with a rosemary sprig, if using.
