Pomegranate infused vodka is simple and fun. In Southern California, there is an abundance of pomegranates every fall. They make beautiful decorations, delicious juice and great jelly. They are also quite a bit of work, no matter what you do with them. If you think you deserve a small reward for all of your efforts, try this simple process.
Fill a jar with pomegranate seeds, fill it with vodka, and let it steep for 24 hours. If the weather is warm, keep the jar in the refrigerator. If it is below 75 degrees, it would be fine on the kitchen counter. In 24 hours, you will have a delicious, sweet vodka. You can use this anyway that you like. I mixed it with ice and tonic water and it was fresh and fragrant with just a hint of sweetness.
Happy Holidays!
Post Script: If you do not like or use alcohol, this method would work to jazz up a plain vinegar that could be used in salads or any other place you would use a flavored vinegar.
