Pomegranate Champagne Punch

from Bon Appétit December 2007

Ingredients:

• 1/2 cup sugar
• 2 – 750-ml bottles chilled brut Champagne, Sparkling Wine or Prosecco
• 1 1/2 cups white rum
• 1 1/4 cups pomegranate juice
• 2 large lemons, thinly sliced, divided
• Pomegranate seeds, divided
• Fresh mint leaves, divided
• 1 ice ring*

Preparation: Bring 1/2 cup water and sugar to boil in small saucepan, stirring until sugar dissolves. Simmer 5 minutes. Cool syrup completely. Combine Champagne, rum, and pomegranate juice in punch bowl. Add enough syrup to sweeten to taste. Mix in half of the lemon slices, pomegranate seeds, and mint leaves.  Add ice ring to bowl.

Ice Ring Ingredients:

• 2 (12 ounce) cans ginger ale (more if you ring is bigger)
• 1/2 cup lemon juice
• Pomegranate seeds
• Lemon Slices
• Mint Leaves

Directions: Mix ginger ale with lemon juice. Pour 2 1/2 cups of the mixture into a 1 quart ring.  Freeze. Arrange the fruit on top of the ice. Slowly, pour remaining juice mixture over the top so that you don’t disturb your fruit decorations. If you are using a mold that is fluted on “top” make sure that you lay the fruit so that it shows best when flipped over. If mold is flat then lay fruit face up so that it shows best when placed in the punch bowl. Freeze. To unmold, run cold water around outside of the mold until it releases (don’t get water in the ice mold).
