Ingredients
  

  • ½ cup brown sugar packed
  • ½ cup water
  • 3 sprigs of rosemary
  • 1 cup unsweetened pomegranate juice
  • ½ cup orange juice
  • 1 ½ cups ginger beer
  • Ice
  • Optional garnishes: rosemary sprigs orange slices, and pomegranate seeds

Instructions
 

  • Add the brown sugar, water, and sprigs of rosemary to a small pot. Set the pot over medium heat. Bring the mixture to a simmer, stirring regularly to encourage the sugar to dissolve.
  • Allow the syrup to simmer for three minutes, then remove it from the heat. Let the syrup cool to room temperature, then strain it into a small bottle or jar. 
  • Add the pomegranate juice to a pitcher, followed by the orange juice, ¼ cup (2 ounces) of the brown sugar syrup, and the ginger beer. Stir to combine.
  • Serve in a tumbler or rocks glass over plenty of ice. Garnish with rosemary sprigs, orange slices, and pomegranate seeds if you like. 

Notes

  • If you’d like to make this ahead for a party, make sure to leave the ginger beer out until right before you’re ready to serve so that it doesn’t go flat.
  • For a less sweet variation, use unsweetened cranberry juice in place of the pomegranate juice. 
  • This recipe can easily be scaled up to serve a crowd!
