Let’s face it: everything just sounds ten times cuter with “–ini” attached to the end.

And Pom-tinis are no exception! Below, celebrating my 21st birthday in style:

Recently, Ryan, of the Pom Wonderful Company, emailed me and asked if I’d be interested in receiving a case of Pom Wonderful 100% Pomegranate Juice.

When I told Chocolate-Covered Mom, she literally jumped up and down.

One of her favorite things to make is a Pom-tini. So these babies are going to be put to good use! Below, her recipe. There are a ton of Pom-tini recipes floating out there, but this one is way easier—with only three ingredients—than many others, while still being just as delicious.

Easy Meanie PomTinis

  • 1oz Pama liqueur
  • 1oz Absolut mandarin vodka
  • 2oz pom pom juice

Combine in a cocktail shaker, filled with ice. Strain and pour into martini glass. Particularly nice with a few raspberries in each glass.

    Your mum is too cute – she looks like a kid on Christmas morning with that box of juice!

    I don’t drink because I am allergic to alcohol. Weird, but true: my lips and tongue go numb, my face swells, and other unpleasantries.

    If I am out someplace where people are ordering fancy drinks, i stick with cranberry and orange juice mixed together – it looks a bit fancier than plain juice and it tastes pretty good too. Otherwise, at Christmas, my inlaws make something called Moose Milk with alcohol in it. (Basically, mashed up ice cream, milk, and spices.) They make a vegan non-alcoholic version for me and it’s really yummy.

    This post is cute!

    I don’t drink much, but I like Sambuca, specifically mixed with apple juice, for some reason.
    And I sometimes have wine, but I usually prefer non alcoholic drinks 🙂

    And whoa… that oatmeal. yum.

  3. theprocessofhealing says

    Pomtinis sound good!!! I got my own case a while back and I’m STILL going through them haha but they are good!!!

    I’m not a big drinker in that I drink often but I do enjoy it when I DO drink. I like white wine a lot, not too big of a fan of the red, and mixed fruity drinks.

  4. Sarahishealthy says

    After a hard day, there’s nothing better than relaxing with a glass of wine and a few friends! I’m not a big partier. I’d rather stay in and gossip 😉

  5. Aimee says

    You and your mom are so cute! And you look so much alike!
    I’m so excited for the pom giveaway. That stuff’s expensive!

  6. Sünne says

    I’m not drinking any alcohol but like to drink non-alcoholic versions of cocktails like Piña Colada every now and then.

    Love your Power Song of the day as it reminds me of a play my performing arts class in school recently staged. We adapted “Where the wild things are” and used this song in a dancing scene.
    It was such a lot of fun!

  7. Valerie says

    Yikes, am I the only one who likes my cocktails here? Reading the other comments, I kind of feel ashamed to admit my love of all things fruity and alcoholic! ESPECIALLY martinis! Can’t get much better than Pomtinis!

  8. ilanalala says

    Mmmm pomtinis. I love that adorable picture of you and your mom celebrating!
    I had my day as a drunken party girl (okay, fine, like two and a half years of college) but I never really liked how alcohol made me feel. The occasional cocktail (expecially if it is in mojito form), a glass of wine on occasion, but lately I can’t even finish a drink! The sorority girl in me weeps.

  9. *Andrea* says

    cute pictures! you’re so beautiful..as is your madre 🙂

    i had a bunch of pomtinis on my spring break trip! while others drank beer…i prefer fun drinks that are fruity (probably cause they mask the alcohol haha). i’m not a big drinker at all…i do enjoy the occasional vodka/seltzer or cranberry at a bar though to ‘fit in’ socially… sometimes a nice corona in the summer too

  10. Jessica says

    Never fear, I’m here to make you feel better, Valerie! I love fruity cocktails too. Mojitos, martinis, Breezers… I’m not an alcoholic by any means, but when I’m out, I have no guilt enjoying myself! 🙂

  11. Bianca- Vegan Crunk says

    I agree with Dan123. I’m a drinker. Yup. I like to party. What can I say? I figure I eat healthy enough throughout the week to justify 3 or 4 glasses of wine (or um, shots) on a Saturday night.

    The pomtinis look delish! Pom contacted me too, but I turned them down. I can’t get past that whole animal testing thing they used to do. They’ve supposedly stopped that, but it stills gives me the creeps.

  12. Jessica (PB & Jess) says

    I’m a popular DD too because I don’t drink at all. I used to back in college (and for a few years after) but I just don’t like the taste…before, I was drinking to get drunk and didn’t care. I like cooking with wine and beer but all the alcohol cooks out anyway!!

  13. Hela says

    omg, those pomtinis look yummy!
    i only drink when i go out, but then i go 4 a couple of em 😉
    i love mojito n caipirinha, but also i love pina colada or, less fancy, bulmers pear 🙂 n what i really like is malibu-sprite- summer spirit! come to think of it- i just love drinking, BUT: in moderation! hang overs are not very much fun^^
    happy wkend everybody! drink n enjoy 🙂

  14. Gina G says

    i love the pictures you have been posting of you and your momma! =) and i am not a drinker (im a senior in highschool, but that dont really mean anything to the other kids my age hahah)
    have a great day Katie!

  15. Simply T says

    Mmmm, pomtini!! I will have to try that, I’ve been looking for something to do with the remaining pom I have in the fridge – I made pomegranate sangria for a christmas party I hosted. Unfortunately, it yields a giant punch bowl’s worth and unless I have a zillion people over again, there’s just no way I’m drinking a punch bowl of sangria and getting out alive.

    Beer pong with water? Water pong, perhaps? I used to play beer pong all the time in college, and now looking back I have to think of how gross it was that the ping pong ball would miss the table and land in the dirt (if we were outside) or on the floor of the nasty fraternity house we were at, and we would just dunk it in some water and continue. And then drink the beer that the dirty ping pong ball lands in.

    Eh. What do they say? God made dirt and dirt don’t hurt?

    Or maybe the 10 second rule applies here?

    PS. You and your mom look positively adorable. Yay mother daughter bonding. I think I’ll go call my mommy 🙂

    PS – I’m hoping to have the beginnings of my veg blog up and running this weekend. I wouldn’t mind your critique when I do 🙂 I’ll post you a link when I get it going.

    I’m not much of a drinker, but I do enjoy the occasional girly fruity cocktail, and I LOVE amaretto sours!

  17. Naomi (onefitfoodie) says

    HAHA when I got the case of POM the first thing my mom said was POM TINI’S!!!! she loves them and made some mean ones 🙂

    love the pics and brownie batter oatmeal..drooool

  18. foodlovingpolarbear says

    Those pomtinis sound delicious 🙂 I wish we had some here too. I must go and find a substitute!

  19. BroccoliHut says

    Ooh! Pomtinis sound delicious–and it provides a perfect way to justify imbibing alcohol: “It’s all for the antioxidants!”

  20. Hela says

    thx, katie 🙂
    forgot to say: drink and enjoy RESPONSIBLE 😉
    haha, broccolihut! ya know that sayin ” i only drink wine b/c of the vitamins in the grapes?!” lol

  21. Courtney says

    I just commented my way into the POM giveaway on the other post, and the martinis look irresistably fab for the record, mmmm I’m over here drooling!

  22. Tori says

    I personally love a good beer. Or a rum n coke. Or just straight up vodka.

    But I really don’t drink that often – maybe 1-2X a month?

  23. Marianne says

    I may be a martini fiend. We need to watch hockey and drink martinis some day. And eat food with chocolate and coconut. LOL.
