Pomegranate Martini with Rock Candy Stick

Amazing, right!

This creation can be found at the Hi-Life Bar on the Upper West Side. It's their Hi-Life Cocktail made with vodka, pomegranate juice and orange juice, and it is really good! The best part was the rock candy stick garnish. So clever!

Want to make your own? Here is a recipe from Drinks Mixer for Oprah's Pomegranate Martini:

1 oz vodka
1/2 oz Cointreau orange liqueur
3 oz pomegranate juice
rock candy sticks (I added this ingredient)

Combine ingredients in a cocktail shaker 1/4 filled with chopped ice. Shake and strain into a cocktail glass. Serve with a squeeze of lemon.

Substitution: If you don't have orange liqueur, slightly increase the amount of vodka and add a few splashes of orange juice.
