The cooking plan
How to make Pomegranate-Ginger Kombucha Spritz.
Before cutting the lime, remove a broad strip of green zest for the garnish. Halve the lime and reserve one half for another use.
Put the remaining lime half and ginger in a sturdy mug or cocktail shaker. Press and crush them with a muddler or the end of a wooden spoon to release the juice and ginger flavor. Leave the carbonated ingredients out for now.
Set a fine-mesh strainer over the serving glass. Pour in the crushed mixture and press the solids against the mesh to collect the liquid. Discard the solids.
Fill the glass halfway with ice. Add the kombucha and pomegranate juice, then pour in the club soda and stir gently. Add another splash of soda if desired, garnish with the lime zest and serve.
