Pomegranate Orange Spritz: A Sparkling Cocktail Perfect for the Holidays

The holiday season calls for festive drinks that are not only delicious but also beautiful to serve. One drink that perfectly blends seasonal flavors and sparkling cheer is the Pomegranate Orange Spritz made with Prosecco. This cocktail combines the vibrant tang of pomegranate, the citrusy sweetness of orange, and the effervescence of Prosecco to create a refreshing, eye-catching drink.

Whether you’re hosting an Easter party, Mother’s Day, a New Year’s Eve celebration, or simply want to enjoy a festive treat, this drink will be a hit.

The deep red of pomegranate and the bright orange of citrus make this spritz a visual treat. The pomegranate tartness pairs perfectly with the sweetness of fresh orange juice, while Prosecco adds a bubbly lift. Despite its elegant appearance, this drink is surprisingly easy to prepare, making it perfect for beginner and seasoned cocktail enthusiasts.

Tips for the Best Pomegranate Orange Spritz

The key is using good-quality ingredients that blend together to create a rich mix of flavors.

• Chill Your Prosecco: To make the drink even more refreshing, chill it before serving to keep it cool and bubbly.
• Adjust Sweetness: If you prefer a sweeter cocktail, add a splash of simple syrup.
• Make it a Mocktail: Want a non-alcoholic version? Simply replace the Cointreau with non-alcoholic triple sec syrup and the Prosecco with sparkling water or club soda for a bubbly, refreshing mocktail.

Need a great Cocktail Shaker but don’t know which one to buy? Look no further

Martini or cocktail, a good shake makes all the difference in the world so buying a cocktail shaker can seriously step up your at-home drink game. Think about it: no more settling for boring mixed drinks when you can whip up bar-quality cocktails in your kitchen. It’s not just about the fancy presentation (although that’s a fun bonus) but also about how it makes mixing drinks easier and more fun. 

I have at least a dozen shakers, but one favorite. The shaker doesn’t leak; you won’t have to hit the shaker against the sink to get the top off, and the cap will measure from 1/2 to 1.5 ounces with clearly marked labels. Measure the perfect amount every time. And it is dishwasher safe!

Plus, once you get the hang of shaking, you’ll feel like a total pro, impressing your friends and yourself with your newfound bartending skills. So why not add a little shake, shake, shake to your life and upgrade your happy hour?

How to Make a Pomegranate Orange Spritz

In a cocktail shaker half filled with ice, combine the pomegranate juice, orange juice, and Cointreau.

Shake vigorously for 10 seconds, then pour the strained ingredients into a stemless wine glass filled with ice. Top it off with Prosecco and stir gently.

For a festive touch, add a few fresh pomegranate seeds, a slice of orange, and a sprig of mint.

Do you prefer sipping cocktails from a coupe glass? If so, pour the strained ingredients from the shaker into a chilled coupe glass, top off with the Prosecco, and stir gently. Garnish with a dehydrated orange slice.

Adjust the cocktail your way! Using more Prosecco will increase the number of bubbles, lighten the color, and reduce the concentrated flavors of pomegranate and orange juice, giving you more of that Prosecco taste.

Whether sipping by the fire or enjoying a sunny afternoon, the Pomegranate Orange Spritz will surely add sparkle to any occasion. Cheers to the perfect mix of flavors, bubbles, and festive spirit!
