Source of Recipe

Tony Roumph at the Cityhouse Restaurant at the Parc 55 Hotel in San Francisco


Recipe Introduction

Inspired by Shoshanna, the young woman who gets revenge on the Nazis in wartime Paris — while wearing a stunning red dress — mixologist Tony Roumph used French spirits and bright red pomegranate syrup for this drink.

List of Ingredients

1/2 ounce pomegranate juice

1/2 ounce lemon juice

1/2 ounce simple syrup

Ice

2 ounces Remy Martin VSOP

1 ounce Domaine de Canton ginger liqueur

Candied ginger and pomegranate seeds, to garnish




Recipe

In a liquid measuring cup, stir together the pomegranate juice, lemon juice and simple syrup. Measure out 1 ounce of this mixture, then reserve the rest for another use.

In a cocktail shaker filled with ice, combine the 1 ounce of pomegranate-lemon syrup, Remy Martin VSOP and the ginger liqueur. Shake, then strain into a martini glass.

Garnish with a slice of candied ginger and several pomegranate seeds.
