The holidays call for a celebratory sparkling drink, and this one does not disappoint. The sweet and tart pomegranate complements the elegant flavor of bubbly wine and adds a beautiful ruby color to the drink.

In a small pot, bring the sugar and pomegranate juice to a boil then reduce to medium heat and simmer for 5 minutes until slightly thickened. Stir in the fresh lemon juice as need to enhance tartness.
