Chi-Chi's Pomegranate Martini



Nothing says sophistication like a Pomegranate Martini from a joint called Chi-Chi's. Maybe having Charo on your arm would say that as well come to think of it or driving a Dodge Aries Series K, hard to tell. Anyways, Chi-chi's sounds just a little too much like Shi-shi which in Portuguese means urinate. Yay. Don't.

Counter & the $665 Organic Iridium Martini (with Pomegranate seeds)



Remember those people in High School who'd inhale butane or spray wasp killer on their cigarettes? Well, they've decided to make a drink.

This is just insanity for the sake of publicity. Iridium. What they need to make it with is a drop or two of lawrencium. That's all I'm saying. Don't give this stuff another femtosecond's thought. Whoops.

At least it's organic iridium. I can just hear them now, "Ya know thujone isn't doing it for me anymore, I need something more. Say, like iridium. That sounds yummy. Gimme a few drops bartender."

Macaroni Grill Pomegranate Martini



Macaroni Grill is a restaurant kinda like Carabbas. They both have dark atmospheres, decent food and people seeing and being seen on the scene. Here, unlike any other place in All Of Creation, Macaroni Grill has a Pomegranate Martini on their menu consisting of:

1. Orange Vodka (I think, my photo is less than optimal as the result of too many pomegranate martini's).
2. Some kind of orange liqueur.
3. Pomegranate something.

So it's yummy, you'll feel great and think the world is happy happy place as you get trashed on these things and keep banging on the table asking for another acai mangosteen baked chedder martini or whatever she's having.

Carrabbas Pomegranate Martini



Carrabbas is a restaurant kinda like Macaroni Grill. They both have dark intimate atmospheres, decent food, booze and trendy people enjoying trending things trendily. Imagine then, sitting down and discovering your favorite wow-that's-weird-I've-never-seen-that-before Fruitfad of the Moment staring back at you from the menu, as a martini, even.

At least there's some pomegranate (shhh, it's just flavored syrup) in this one, among the peach vodka, orange juice and Sprite. I guess it's more of a Grenadine Champagne Pomegranate Martini come to think of it. I'm sure it goes well with the olive and shrimp pesto lasagna tempura.

(Thanks to Nukezone for the photo!)

Mike's Pomegranate Martini with Acai Berries




Okay, buckle up because I think this is the full moniker of this product:

Mike's Premium Malt Cocktails Pomegranate Martini with Acai Berries.

You're somebody (in your circle of friends), You enjoy the finer things in life (like your Dodge Stratus, lack of socks and deep desire to have a pet alligator on a leash) so you know what you want to be seen with, smell like and inside you. Enter the Pomegranate Martini in a pop-top bottle four-pack.

They're small, presumably tasty and most important of all, if you look real close at my horrible photograph you can see it reads: "Alcohol Included Ready To Drink". Thank the Makers. I HATE having to buy flavored water in one part of the store and then take my shopping cart all the way to the other side of the store to buy GenericBrand™ 100 % Pure Alcohol just to mix them together when I get home to make booze to get blotto on. That's like chemistry and that's like no fun unless something get's blow'd up.

I wasn't even sure what category to put this under, Booze? Ghetto Wine? Martini? Heck, this isn't a martini because I didn't make one Bond joke, other than the one you'll need to get out of the pokey after swilling this "malt cocktail" and tripping the night fantastic. I mean once a lady sees you choking one of these down she'll have no choice but to drippily ponder your erudite sophistication & charisma +3, right? Right. What does that even mean? I'll show you a malt cocktail, by gum.
