- 2 to 3 tablespoons simple syrup see Note or Ginger Basil simple syrup
- 1 ½ cups vodka
- quarter slice orange to garnish, optional
Instructions
- In a large pitcher, combine the pomegranate juice, grapefruit juice, orange juice, lime juice, simple syrup, and vodka. Chill for at least 1 hour, or until very cold.

Notes
