Notes

Notes:

  • Feel free to use light ginger beer to keep the calories and sugar down a bit.
  • If you have trouble finding pure pomegranate juice, you can use a Pom-Cranberry blend.
  • If you don't have copper mule cups, you can use a different glass, but fill it just to half with the crushed ice before you add the ingredients to make sure you have enough room for everything. If there is a lot of room in the glass, you can add a little more ice, just make sure you have enough room for your pretty ice cube on top!
