This Pomegranate Gin Smash cocktail is a refreshing complement to many of the flavors we serve at the Mayan Cafe. It’s the perfect cocktail for sitting on your front porch in the summer or entertaining friends in the spring. Try the recipe listed here. There are many types of gin out there, but we feel that St. George Botanivore Gin is the best complement for this drink. It’s a lovely, artisanal spirit.

small handful fresh pomegranate seeds (6-7 pieces)
