If you like citrus sour drinks ( and I most definitely do), then this one is for you. As stated, the lemon and grenadine syrup (home made) balance out very well, and there is a very slight "show of force" made by the Bourbon at the end.

Exactly like you said. It starts with lemon and pomegranate from the grenadine with an orange accent, finished off by the warming Bourbon at the back of your throat. Sublime.

Absolute delicious. A perfect winter cocktail to sip by a roaring fire. Agree with Scott that the lemon and grenadine balance the bourbon well, especially if like me, your grenadine measure is on the generous side of 7.5 ml ;)

Really liked this. A very accessible bourbon cocktail for which will be enjoyed by those who may shy away from Bourbon. The grenade and the lemon balance the bourbon nicely. Definitely have this again.

You may want to give this another shot by making your own grenadine. The Waldorf Astoria Cocktail book has a great recipe - combine and heat 12 oz pomegranate juice, 12 oz of brown sugar, and the peels from two oranges. Heat just long enough to bring to a boil and immediately take off the burner. Let ingredient steep for 3-5 min and strain. Bottle in a sterile jar with a splash of everclear to keep for a little longer in the fridge. Keeps up to a month. Do that and give this drink another go ;)
