OT: Why I love New England - 01

Personally, I roll a mean, and very dry, Sake Martini ;-)

Hello Win and Jim,

We take gin, add brown sugar, a cinnamon stick and blackberries and let that sit for about two months. After filtering through a cheese cloth in a sieve out comes a deceiving drink where you don't feel the alcohol.

Then again, I guess the berries are from New England.

Regards, Joerg

That's good, and you are to be commended. However, good Sake and vodka is available anywhere, whereas Polar's Pomegranate Dry is *only* available in New England. That was my comment.

Is Polar's Pomegranate a soda?

DO you mean this :

Yes. I wonder if anyone else makes a Pomegranate soda?

I'm especially fond of Pomegranate, because it grew near my uncle's house and I enjoyed eating the fruits as a boy.

My wife brings home bottles of Pom juice

It's not a soda, but mixing with a little ginger ale is pleasant.

As for eating the fruit, too much bother.

Eating pomegranates is a real pain in the teeth ;-)

And of course you can just drink Grenadine and soda--as in the Shirley Temple. Real grenadine is sweetened concentrated pomegranate juice.
