Pomegranate Lime Non-Alcoholic Spritzer
A simple mocktail with a simple syrup or low carb stevia sweetened option. If making the simple syrup, be sure to make it at least an hour ahead of time so it has time to cool and then refrigerate. When having a party, we set out all the prepped ingredients with a recipe card so guests can make their own spritzers.

Ingredients
If Making a Simple Syrup, Make Ahead. (Low Carb Stevia version below)
- 1 cup organic granulated sugar
- 1 cup water
Spritzer Recipe:
- 2 tablespoons simple syrup OR 4-5 drops liquid stevia
- 2 lime wedges
- 2 tablespoons lime juice
- 2 tablespoons pomegranate juice
- ¾ cup ice cold sparkling water (I like Pellegrino)
- ice
Instructions
- If using simple syrup, make ahead of time and allow to cool: place water and sugar in a pot and bring to a boil, lower and simmer for 6 minutes. Allow to cool. If using liquid stevia, skip this step
- To make drink: place 2 lime wedges in bottom of glass, muddle (this means smash with your muddling tool)
- Add lime juice, pomegranate juice and either simple syrup or stevia drops, and muddle more. Then pour sparkling water into glass.
- If desired, add ice, pomegranate seeds or an additional lime wedge to edge of glass. Serve.
