John created this turmeric- and ginger-flavored riff on the cosmo to go with Rach's Barbecue Pork Stir Fry with Corn and Zucchini. It's got a great balance of sweet and sour, and the ginger lends a nice "spicy" note.
Pro Tip from John: You can sub cranberry juice for the pomegranate juice.
For two more of John's cosmo variations, check out his Chinatown Cosmo and Cran-Apple Cosmo.
