How to Make Pomegranate Simple Syrup Sparkle Wine Cooler

  1. **Make the Pomegranate Simple Syrup:**
  2. In a small saucepan, combine 1 cup pomegranate juice, 1 cup granulated sugar, and 1/4 cup water.
  3. Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring constantly until the sugar dissolves completely.
  4. Reduce heat to low and simmer for 25-30 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the syrup has reduced to approximately 1 1/4 cups and has thickened slightly.
  5. Remove from heat and let cool completely.
  6. **Assemble the Wine Cooler:**
  7. Pour 2 tablespoons of pomegranate syrup into a tall glass filled with ice.
  8. Add 4 ounces of chilled white wine (such as Pinot Grigio or Sauvignon Blanc).
  9. Add 1 ounce of your favorite liqueur (optional, such as Grand Marnier or Cointreau).
  10. Stir gently to combine.
  11. Garnish with a lemon wedge (optional).
  12. **Non-Alcoholic Version:**
  13. Substitute 4 ounces of chilled apple juice or apple cider for the wine. A splash of 7-Up adds a nice fizz.
