Step 1

Place the salt on a small plate. Place a splash of pomegranate juice on another small plate. Dip just the rims of two glasses in the pomegranate juice, then dip in the salt.

Step 2

In a cocktail shaker, combine the pomegranate juice, tequila, triple sec, lime juice, maple syrup and ice. Shake for 10-20 seconds to chill thoroughly, then strain into two glasses filled with ice. Garnish with a slice of lime and a few pomegranate seeds, if you like.
