What can I say, we like our bubbly.
The pomegranate seeds provide the much needed sustenance for a full day of drinking
Pomosas
- Sparkling wine
- Pomegranate juice
- fresh orange juice
- pomegranate seeds
Fill glass two-thirds of the way with bubbly, add a tablespoon of fresh orange juice, fill the rest of the way with pomegranate juice. Garnish with a spoonful of seeds. Drink. Repeat.
About Rufus' Food and Spirits Guide
This blog attempts to collect some of the things I try to create with food and booze. Sometimes I succeed and sometimes I fail. My hope is to entertain and maybe help people think a little harder about what they decide to eat and drink.
I like my bubbly, too – especially like this!
Cheers for a lovely cocktail.
Sounds like a great one _ healthy too!
That is one tall drink! And ha, love the caption. 🙂
This would be oh, so, good for brunch!
I loved it to drink and also the photograph is so impressive. Thank you dear Rufus, with my love, nia
This looks gorgeous! I love mimosas and I love them made with passionfruit – need to try this one as well!
This one looks really exceptional! I definitely buy pomegranates tomorrow on the market.
I drank some tasty bubbly in Friuli… oddly, no one drinks mimosas here and I have yet to see a bellini! Lots and lots of pomegranate though. 🙂
Drink. Repeat. I love it!!!
Ooh yummy – I like a drink that gives you the added bonus of something healthy – good excuse to enjoy a second one!
Have a happy day.
🙂 Mandy
You’re on a roll with the pomegranate seeds this week! This cocktail is lovely, and totally makes me think of the holidays!
If that’s as yummy as it is pretty, I’m in!
I do loves me some champagne cocktails…..
That looks awfully refreshing.
Only two more days till the weekend – hello, bubbly!
You are so clever!! I want this immediately and the glass! And as pomegranates are very very hi in anti oxidants we are drinking a healthy bubbly! TRUE! c
Cool glass. The seeds look great in there. Love the “Drink. Repeat.” instructions!
That is my kind of drink…where can I put these kids for a few hours?!
That flute is no fluke . . . it’s the real deal! Bottoms up! 😀
Wow, I love the effect of the pomegranate seeds at the bottom – looks like little jewels – beautiful, and so refreshing!
It’s well known that pandas looove bubby 😀 what a beautiful cocktail and clever name!
It’s my birthday today…would it be inappropriate to start my day with this drink. LOL. Sigh…probably. But I’m saving this one to make soon!!! 🙂
Made this tonight! Good stuff Greg. 🙂
Oh good! Thanks for reporting back.
Wow, you’re pulling out the pomegranate big time!! I’m loving it. In fact, this is our classic Christmas drink. Champagne and pomegranate seeds – so delish! The juice gives it a whole other look. Beautiful.
That sounds really tasty! Love the color too, will be great for the holidays 🙂
“The pomegranate seeds provide the much needed sustenance for a full day of drinking”…the logic found in this statement sums up the reason that I follow Rufus’ Food and Spirits Guide religiously. Awesome looking drink.
Cheers!
A gorgeous and “healthy” cocktail…just in time for my birthday. Know what I’m going to try this weekend! Cheers!
What can I say… I like my bubblies too!! And scarlet red.. so very pretty!! I think I’ve got my Sunday brunch cocktail planned and I will be toasting to you both!!
Cheers!!!
I’d like two please…maybe three? Bottoms up! Looks delicious.
Love the pom seeds – very festive! Cheers!
Out of control. Wow, does that look good!
In ever decline a glass of bubbles! A nice refreshing summer drink…thanks
This looks amazing and I’m not even a big fan of blubbly drinks. The glass is gorgeous. That combined with the chicken dish you posted the other day would be a wonderful combo!
Looks refreshing.
I agree with sportsglutton! Too funny! Great looking drink for our approaching summer!
Cheers! Lovely drink for a Friday. I love my bubbles too, such a cheerful drink.
Now that is a beautiful drink!
I’m loving your pomegranate posts, this will sure match the chicken recipe you posted earlier
Okay I may be de-fouling the drink but you both know I don’t drink lol. I’m thinking, what if you could add champagne instead of wine.. it sounds delicious. Or maybe a lemon lime soda. But as is, this drink has me intrigued.. very nice you guys
Beautiful, simple, and filled with antioxidants! What’s not to love?
I love the “drink. repeat”… someone after my own heart 🙂 I had a pomegranate martini once and it was amazing, this will definitely be on my list of drinks to try!
Anything that mixes sparkling wine a fruit juice is a winner!!! So refreshing and easy to make. I love the color and the idea of the pomegranate seeds in the bottom is just so clever!!!! Top post!
Oh WOW, this is so pretty! I bet it is really good, too!
The drink sounds delicious and what a picture….RaeDi
I am loving this cocktail! Pomegranate juice tastes great! 🙂 This would be perfect for a holiday party…I am bookmarking this to try!
Oh, yummy! and something I’ve tried is wine with a blood orange sparkling soda….delicious.
Oh my word! When I saw this picture, my mouth fell open. Love the look and sound of it!!
That just sounds amazing! Hi Rufus! Mel sent me a link to this post and I’m loving it!
Thanks! Glad you came by!
At a ‘fruit tasting’ session at scouts last week (!) George had tried and knew every fruit put in front of him, except for Pomegranate. I don’t buy them because I can’t get on with fruit being ‘crunchy’. He loved them though and made me buy some this week. He just sits and eats the seeds off a plate, but this looks a much prettier way of using them. Can’t help wondering if they get wedged in the bottom of the glass though!
That glass is great for pictures, but yes it does trap stuff in the stem! We used a wine glass for the other one.
where did you get that cool glass from????? i want it!
TJ Maxx.
That looks delicious man! I will have to try it out! There’s a bottle of champagne in my fridge thats begging to be opened!

That’s cool! Love your cocktails.
I LOVE pomegranates, even with that strong bitter taste at the finish. This looks great.
That is just gorgeous! What a glass!
Just tried this man…. delicious!
Great! Thanks for reporting back.
