To celebrate Christmas Eve, I wanted to share a marvelous cocktail recipe from two nice Jewish girls… Me and Mrs. Maisel.
I’ve been obsessed with The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel since the sneak peek aired on Amazon Prime over a year ago. My friend Rebecca knew of my love for the show and invited me to the Season 2 premiere screening. The screening was amazing and much to my surprise we ended up getting sent home with a set of marvelous cocktail tumblers.
No, really… they say MARVELOUS on them. 🙂
I knew glasses as marvelous as these called for a good cocktail recipe, but what could it be? I started to brainstorm ideas, but somehow Mrs. Maisel’s Marvelous Margaritas didn’t have a very good ring to it. It ended up being Mo who came up with the idea for Mrs. Maisel’s Marvelous Mojitos.
I decided to give this mojito a fruity twist by adding pomegranate juice and skipping the soda water and sugar for Martinelli’s Sparkling Apple Cranberry Juice. It’s still plenty sweet and you’ll never miss the refined sugar.
Mrs Maisel's Marvelous Pomegranate Mojitos Recipe
Ingredients
- 1 Part white rum I used this one
- 1 Part pomegranate juice
- 1 Part Martinelli’s Sparkling Apple Cranberry Juice
- A squeeze of fresh lime juice
- Fresh cranberries sliced lime and mint leaves to garnish
Instructions
- **Use organic ingredients where possible
- Mix equal parts Bacardi (or your favorite white rum selection), with pomegranate juice and Martinelli’s Sparkling Apple Cranberry Juice.
- Add a splash of lime juice and mix well.
- Serve over ice and add a slice of lime into each glass.
- Garnish with fresh cranberries and mint leaves and there you have it... Mrs. Maisel’s Marvelous Pomegranate Mojitos. Easy, breezy, marvelous and refreshing!
These pomegranate mojitos make for a perfect Christmas or New Year’s cocktail, don’t you think?
Tit’s up!
I hope you’re already watching the show, otherwise that last part might not have made any sense. 🙂
It’s streaming on Amazon Prime, so grab your Marvelous Pomegranate Mojitos and hop to it.
I don’t know about you, but this holiday season I’m ready to Mrs. Maisel marathon and chill.
Wishing you and your loved ones a Very Merry Christmas!
Thank you everyone and goodnight! Although, FYI, you can catch my next “gig” here on the blog right after Christmas. 🙂

Do you think they would even understand what “organic” even means?
Your dress is fabulous! I have some dark red velvet that I may have to use next Christmas to copy this look.

That’s a great point Vicki! I think back then they just called it food. 🙂 Also, can you wear the dark red velvet dress for New Year’s or Valentine’s Day?
