2 ounces (60 ml) sumac-infused vodka
1 ¼ ounces (40 ml) Velvet Falernum liqueur
1 ¾ ounces (50 ml) lime juice
1 ¼ ounces (40 ml) pomegranate juice
A few pinches sumac, to garnish
Place all the ingredients in a shaker with some cubed ice. Shake really hard for 10 to 15 seconds, then double-strain (through a strainer and into a fine-mesh sieve) into two chilled glasses. Serve at once, with a sprinkle of sumac on top.
Infused vodka
3 tablespoons sumac
1 bottle (750 ml) of high-quality vodka
Place the sumac in a large glass or ceramic bowl and pour over the vodka. Cover and set aside for 2 hours, stirring from time to time, then strain back into the bottle through a fine-mesh or muslin-lined sieve.
