Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup fresh cranberries
- 2 cups pomegranate juice
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
- 2 cups water
- 1 cup ice cubes
- 6 leaves fresh mint leaves
- 2 tablespoons pomegranate seeds (for garnish)
Instructions
Rinse the fresh cranberries thoroughly under cold water.
In a small saucepan, combine cranberries and water. Bring to a gentle boil over medium heat and cook for 8-10 minutes, or until the cranberries start to burst.
Remove the saucepan from heat and allow the mixture to cool slightly.
Transfer the cranberry mixture to a blender and blend until smooth. Strain the mixture through a fine mesh sieve into a large pitcher to remove pulp. Discard the solids.
To the cranberry liquid in the pitcher, add pomegranate juice, honey, and fresh lemon juice. Stir well until the honey is fully dissolved.
Fill serving glasses with ice cubes and pour the Crimson Drink over the ice.
Garnish each glass with a few fresh mint leaves and a sprinkle of pomegranate seeds.
Serve immediately and enjoy your refreshing Crimson Drink!
