Ingredients

• 1 cup pomegranate juice
• 1/2 cup sparkling water
• 1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
• 1 tablespoon honey (or agave syrup for a vegan option)
• 1/4 teaspoon ground cardamom
• Ice cubes
• Pomegranate seeds (for garnish)
• Fresh mint leaves (for garnish)

Instructions

1. In a large pitcher, combine the pomegranate juice, sparkling water, fresh lime juice, honey, and ground cardamom. Stir well until the honey is fully dissolved.
2. Fill each glass with ice cubes. Pour the pomegranate mixture over the ice, filling each glass about three-quarters full.
3. Add a few pomegranate seeds to each glass, allowing them to float on top for a burst of color and texture.
4. Garnish with fresh mint leaves and serve immediately for a refreshing and vibrant sensory experience.

Helpful Tips and Variations

• For a more natural sweetener, replace honey with pomegranate juice.
• Serve in a chilled glass for extra refreshment on a warm day.
• For a zesty twist, add a slice of lime to each glass before serving.
• This mocktail can be easily scaled up for parties or family gatherings.

Storage and Substitutions

Refrigerate any leftover pomegranate juice mixture in an airtight container for up to 2 days. If fresh pomegranates are unavailable, use high-quality bottled pomegranate juice. For a low-calorie option, replace honey with stevia or another preferred sweetener.
