This pomegranate sparkler cocktail is the perfect libation to mix up at your next holiday party or even as a pre cocktail before Christmas dinner! It encompasses all the flavors of the holiday and is a little boozy! Also, yes I am going to go here, pomegranate has antioxidants which are so good for you, PLUS cinnamon lowers blood sugar and reduces heart disease. Its a win wine people. Another favorite thing about this cocktail is the sparkling red wine. My friend has recently introduced me to sparkling red wines and I have to say I am a huge fan. Especially in the winter time, there is something ‘warming’ about a glass of sparkling red wine when you are a huge rosé drinker.
