Pomegranate-Pear Champagne Punch
The typical beverage of choice for most people during the Super Bowl is beer. But, not for me. While watching the game last week, I was sipping on some of this pomegranate-pear champagne punch. I guess I just like to be fancy. And also, it was Sunday, which is my day for cooking and photographing everything for the blog, but whatever. Oh, and like always, I don’t want to drinks to go to waste, so I end up drinking both of them in the middle of the afternoon. I have no tolerance anymore and so then I fell asleep. I am so lame.
We don’t have any big plans for Valentine’s Day. I think since we have been together, we have only attempted to go out on Valentine’s Day like maybe once. We hate crowds so we are going to do what we always do for special days: Sit at home in PJ’s, eat a lot of fondue, and probably watch more Bones on Netflix. We are out of control!
I love pom juice, but I think my favorite part about this drink is the pear nectar and of course, the pretty pink color! This punch fruity and addicting! I think I will fancy things up this V-Day by mixing up more of this punch! Nothing says Valentine’s Day and romance like a glass of champagne, am I right?!

Your comment on my post came in as I was reading this one. We must be kindred spirits or something! ;-)
I am a huge champagne girl…I need a gallon of these for Sunday brunch!!
Ooh yum! This sounds fabulous!
This looks dangerously good!
haha I’m right there with you on Valentine’s Day – my husband and I never go out to celebrate since we’re not huge fans of crowds : ) And we usually just end up making dinner and watching tv – crazy life I live I tell you! This drink sounds so good!
I love the colour of this beautiful drink :D
Cheers

Girl, you had me at champagne. I can’t wait to try these!
Ohhhh… this looks superb! Only four ingredients, but what flavors!
This is my kind of cocktail! I love my bubbles :) cheers to the weekend!
Looks lip-smacking good. :) This would work perfect for a brunch. :)
This is so me. I love champage and orange liquer and…Pom! Wow, you’d have to hide this from me!
SO much better than beer! I’m going to pin this and make for my book club :)
We’re also going to stay in on V Day and this would be a great cocktail option!
That sounds like a great valentines day! Me and my boyfriend never do anything on valentines day. This year he’s in Russia, so I think I will phone him up this year :)
This looks great! What a lovely color!
This looks incredibly fruity and refreshing!
I don’t drink much but this is my kind of beverage. So pretty too!
Looks super yummy! Love pom!
Girl, if you ever want to just go halvsies on this, drop me a line. We have to help you respect your tolerance level, you know?? :) I’ll take one for the team and drink the other glass, don’t you even worry about it!
I just featured this recipe in my Valentine’ Day post. I’m headed to the store right now to buy the ingredients. It looks so wonderful.
I made this lovely drink for movie night last weekend, and it was delicious. Definitely a must try!
Looks great, but I’m pregnant. Any suggestions to substitute the champagne?

Yes! You can try using sparkling cider or ginger ale.
Drinks should never go to waste is right! These have been in my head since I saw them on instagram! They have my name written all over them & I can’t wait to make them!!
