Pomegranate Spritz

4 Servings:

250 g Happy Day Pomegranate Juice
50 g Rauch Lemon Juice or 50 g lemon juice, freshly squeezed
200 g tonic water, e.g. from Fever-Tree
200 g ice cubes
1 organic lemon
1 pomegranate
200 g mate tea lemonade, e.g. Club Mate or 200 g soda water
16 fresh basil leaves, for garnish

TIPS:
• Gently tap the pomegranate skin from all sides with a wooden spoon to loosen the seeds. Cut off the top and bottom of the pomegranate and separate the fruit in a bowl of water. This will allow you to seed the pomegranate under water without any annoying splashes. This way the seeds will sink to the bottom and the separating membranes will float to the water surface.
• Pomegranates are in season from September to February. In case you don’t get fresh pomegranate, you can also use pomegranate seeds from the jar. Alternatively, you can simply replace them with red currants, blueberries or sea buckthorn.
