Countdown to 2011: Pomegranate Lime Bubbly

Countdown to 2011: Pomegranate Lime Bubbly

You can’t really ring in the new year without a glass of bubbly. But you can’t really hand a 4 year old a glass of champagne. There’s also pregnant friends to consider and those who have already had too much by the time the clock strikes 12:00.

We still had some of the Pom Cranberry Syrup in our fridge so we decided to make our own New Years eve mocktail recipe. Don’t worry, if you didn’t make the Sparkly Pomegrante Cranberries, you missed out but you’re still in luck.  The syrup is simple enough to make and you don’t need the cranberries.

    It is a gorgeous drink! Do you carbonate it with a Fizz Giz? I think that's the quickest, most economical and effective way to go. A quick Google for Fizz Giz will explain why?
