Martinis at Midnight

The Pomegranate Martini

The Pomegranate Martini

Do you believe in love at first sight? Have you ever seen someone that makes you stop dead in your tracks? What is it about that certain person that makes your heart skip a beat? Is it love at first site or lust at first sight? This is a martini that will light up your tastes buds and cause you to fall madly in lust. Put your old favorite martini on the shelf because after you taste this one, you have a new love of your life, the Pomegranate Martini.

This martini has been on the seen for awhile, but it can be a hard one to find on a martini list, so you might have to try this one at home. Once you do, there is no going back to whatever you use to consume. The Pomegranate martini is combination on Citron Vodka, Cointreau and Pomegranate juice. This unique blend of lemon, orange and pomegranate makes this martini unbelievably smooth, there is not even the slightly hint of tang from the citrus flavors. This martini has a lusty sweetness and is a dark rich red color, that compels you to fall passionately in love from the very first sip.

Does love at first sight actually exist? After surveying both man and women, I have to conclude that it does. However, it is a highly controversial topic (like I have never gotten involved in a few of those conversations in my martini lifetime.) The reason this subject is so debatable is because you have the romantic people that believe it happens and then you have the pessimists that think it is all a crock of shit, they just want to believe that it is lust. There is no arguing that "love at first sight" generally begins with a physical attraction to another person. It is the first glance at a person that makes you go

“Wow” he is hot!

The glance where you have to quickly look away because you don’t want to be caught gawking. All of a sudden it does not matter you just have to talk to this person. It is this intense physical magnetism that somehow draws the two people together so they can converse. Once the connection is established it seems that they are the only two people present and the rest of the world has faded away. Some people say that you can tell if this is the "love of your life" by looking into each others eyes, others say it is the feeling that you have met this person before, and others believe that when you have this instant bond it means that you have been with this person in a past life. (Like I said before, I asked a lot of people this question! and got alot of interesting answers!)

Once you have made this connection, by the law of attraction you will find that you keep running into this person, or that you can not seem to get this person out of your mind. This is when the action of the first date or several dates comes into play. In some cases, people fall madly in love and get married (this is the romantic in me) and in others they date for awhile and for whatever reason they split (this is the realist in me) however, if they do split these are the break-ups that are really hard to get over because they have lost their love at first sight. The one comment that I did seem to get from every person was that when you meet the "one" you just instantly know! It is an unexplainable phenomenon but somehow deep inside you just know that this is the person you are suppose to be with.

The pessimists argue that the attraction is only physical and that it is the desire to get into bed with this person that makes the intensity so strong. It is the lust that makes people believe that they are madly in love and when the lust dwindles then the attraction fades and the romance ends. The one comment that I received, that kinda blows this theory apart, was from a few guys who stated that "when they are really smitten by a chick, they usually never sleep with her right away, they wait for the right time." This comment intrigued me and upon more research, I found it to be consistently true. I personally believe that "love at first sight" does exist. It has been my experience that it occurs when I am least expecting it, and it usually hits me up side the head! I have been fortunate enough to have had it happen on three separate occasions, sometimes it was happily ever after and other times it was splitzville. Regardless of what the pessimists say, I do believe that when you meet the "one" you know it instantly! This is truly "love at first sight!" and this is when you should always follow your heart and your intuition, never doubt it because that will only make you miss the opportunity for your chance at amazing love.

Conclusion:

The Pomegranate martini is incredibly smooth and you can not help falling in love with it, at first sight and sip. The dark red color makes this martini truly passionate and exciting. The sultry sweetness will entice you to consume this martini all the time, and you will find yourself retiring your current favorite. The blend of lemon, orange and pomegranate gives this martini a smooth sensual flavor. When you experience "love at first sight" you can be the romantic and trust your intuition or you can be the pessimist and listen to your self doubting rational voice. The question is, would you like to drink a bitter martini or the one that is pure liquid love? Besides, which one is going to be more fun! And isn’t life supposed to be all about love and fun?
