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?!
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 pomegranate juice
- 1 cup pear nectar
- 1/4 cup orange-flavored liqueur (like triple sec)
- 1 bottle (750 ml) champagne
Instructions
- In a pitcher add in the pomegranate juice, pear nectar, and the orange liqueur and stir together. Slowly pour in the champagne. Chill before serving or serve over ice.

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 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!!
