This simple cocktail celebrates tequila by not adding too many other ingredients, in order to let the spirit’s unique charecteristics shine through.

Line is tequila’s natural companion and here it’s muddled to extract the maximum amount of flavour. The sweet pomegrante sugar and the fizz of the tonic water are all that are needed to create well-balanced glass. Line and pomegranate garnish the drink as a way of highlighting these flavours and reminding you of the key components of the Pom Pom.
