The traditional gin fizz is compromised of gin, lemon juice, sugar, and carbonated water. But this cocktail is a summer pomegranate twist of the classic one. In addition, topped off with lemon slices and a sprinkling of pomegranate seeds, this pomegranate and lemon gin fizz cocktail will start the evening on a celebratory note. And I’m sure everyone will love it.Â
I use the well known pomegranate syrup Grenadine by Monin. However, the main ingredient is the gin. My favourite is Sipsmith® London Dry Gin but you can use any gin brand to make this cocktail. Monin Grenadine

Vodka version
If you are a vodka lover, you can swap the gin for vodka or even rum. It is down to a personal choice. So don’t be afraid to experiment!
Alcohol free version
There are many recipes of non-alcoholic cocktails. If you do not know how to make non-alcoholic cocktail, it is time to learn. Non-alcoholic Gin Fizz is simply made without the gin. The process is similar. Components should be mixed according to the proportions and mixing techniques.
