Hibiscus Pomegranate Sour
This Hibiscus Pomegranate Sour recipe post was made in partnership with Frankly Organic Vodka. Recipe and ideas are my own.
One drink that I always enjoy making is a sour, and although this mixed drink can be a labor of love with all the shaking, it’s so worth it! If you’re unfamiliar with the components of a sour cocktail, it’s composed of a base liquor, citrus, sweetener, and egg white for the foamy top you see pictured.
These are definitely my favorite elements of a cocktail because I love the tart taste from the citrus balanced with a sweetness and the light and airy texture from the egg white, and right now is the perfect time to make all the sours!
For the Hibiscus Pomegranate Sour, we have all the elements for a traditional sour including the show-stopping ingredient, Frankly Organic Pomegranate Vodka. Bold and bright, this spirit is a blend of juicy pomegranate, lemon juice, turmeric, zesty ginger, Peruvian maca, and a tad of natural coconut sugar that provides just the right amount of sweetness.
Frankly Organic Pomegranate Vodka offers a fresh balance of tartness, that’s complex yet bright. Plus, adding the egg white really highlights all the amazing flavors and gives the Hibiscus Pomegranate Sour a beautiful texture.
I crafted up the Hibiscus Pomegranate Sour using a mixture of delicious ingredients like lemon juice, a homemade hibiscus concentrate, and Frankly Organic Pomegranate Vodka! I really enjoy this vodka varietal from Frankly because it uses the freshest organic ingredients and although it’s dark in color, this spirit is surprisingly light on your palette.
Frankly Organic Vodka incorporates only the highest quality ingredients, so you don’t have to worry about translating the label. Find out where you can pick up their premium organic vodka here!
