Pomegranate Gin Sling

The pomegranate gin sling cocktail is a classic drink with a modern tangy twist. The pomegranate juice highlights and elevates the gin, sweet vermouth, simple syrup and bitters creating the perfect combination of flavors and festive color for the holidays or any night of the year.
