Equipment

  • Medium saucepan
  • Strainer
  • Ladle
  • Mugs

Ingredients
  

  • 4 cups pomegranate juice
  • 1 cup bourbon
  • 2 cinnamon sticks
  • 4 whole cloves
  • 1 orange, sliced
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • Pomegranate seeds, for garnish
  • Extra cinnamon sticks, for garnish

Instructions
 

  • Add the pomegranate juice, cinnamon sticks, cloves, orange slices, and honey to a medium saucepan.
  • Heat the mixture over medium-low heat until it reaches a gentle simmer, then reduce to low and cook for 15 minutes to let the spices infuse.
  • Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the bourbon.
  • Strain the mixture into four mugs, discarding the spices and orange slices.
  • Top each mug with a few pomegranate seeds and an extra cinnamon stick before serving.

Notes

Simmer the juice and spices first, then add the bourbon off the heat so the alcohol stays in the drink. If you want to prepare it ahead, hold the bourbon and reheat the spiced base before stirring it in right before guests arrive. Adjust the honey to taste if your pomegranate juice is very tart.
