Stir well with a cocktail stirring spoon or place a lid and cap over the shaker and shake well to combine and chill the beverage.

Strain the pomegranate mocktail beverage over a fine mesh strainer or cocktail strainer into the two glasses. Garnish each with a lime slice and optional pomegranate arils.
