Okay, we figured this special occasion calls for a cocktail. A festive one at that. We figured this Ginger Pomegranate Paloma is the reliable way to celebrate a cookbook launch party and the holidays. Muddle fresh ginger, pomegranate arils, and lime juice inside a cocktail shaker. Add grapefruit juice, pomegranate juice, and tequila. Shake, pour, and sip. Garnish with all the festive fixings and enjoy!

Cheers to everyone we see tonight! Wouldn’t be here without your love and support!
