Hey friends, we are bringing you a bonus post this week. The idea of a bonus post was suggested by Rhonda’s friend, Melissa J. Since there is so much going on — Olympics, Valentine’s Day and Mardi Gras, we decided to try it out .
In this post we are sharing a lovely drink that was invented by Rhonda. Any similarities between this drink and others is purely coincidental. Because we are releasing this drink idea so close to Valentine’s Day, we lovingly named it The Love Triangle. We took advantage of garnishing it with heart shaped ice cubes. However, this drink may not just be a weekend fling. You may want to keep this sweetheart around for the whole year.
The Love Triangle is made with a trio of main ingredients: vodka, pomegranate juice and diet ginger ale. (Thus “love triangle”…) However, your heart won’t be pulled in three directions when you see how many calories are in this cocktail. Only 88! Yep, 88 little tiny calories.
So let’s get down to business. How is this drink made?
Pour one ounce of vodka, one ounce of pomegranate juice and juice from half of a lime in a rocks glass. Add ice. Top off with ginger ale and stir.
After one sweet sip of this drink, you will be torn. Do you prefer the seductive taste of pomegranate? Is it the bubbly ginger ale that has you giddy? Or the smooth taste of the vodka that melts your heart? You decide.
