Instructions
To make the simple syrup, combine 100 grams (3.5 ounces) of sugar and 100 milliliters (3.4 ounces) of water in a small saucepan. Heat over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the sugar is completely dissolved. Remove from heat and let it cool.
In a blender, combine 100 grams (3.5 ounces) of fresh cranberries and 200 milliliters (6.8 ounces) of pomegranate juice. Blend until smooth.
Strain the cranberry-pomegranate mixture through a fine mesh sieve to remove any pulp.
In a large pitcher, combine the strained cranberry-pomegranate juice, 200 milliliters (6.8 ounces) of bourbon, and the cooled simple syrup. Stir well.
Fill four glasses with ice and pour the cocktail mixture over the ice.
Garnish with a few fresh cranberries and a slice of pomegranate if desired. Serve immediately.
