Ingredients

1 litre pomegranate juice
small bunch rosemary
1 bay leaf
4 whole cloves
1 cinnamon stick
60g soft light brown sugar
1 orange, zest pared
ice cubes
150ml non-alcoholic gin
2 tsp red wine vinegar
1 pomegranate, seeds bashed out (or 80g tub seeds)
250-350ml soda water

Steps:

Put the pomegranate juice, half the rosemary, bay, cloves, cinnamon, sugar, and orange zest in a pan, and bring to a gentle simmer over a low heat. Once steaming, remove from the heat, put on the lid and leave to infuse for at least 2 hrs, or up to 24 hrs chilled.
When ready to serve, strain the pomegranate juice into a punch bowl with a handful of ice cubes. Add the non-alcoholic gin, vinegar and pomegranate seeds, and remaining rosemary sprigs. Top up with soda water in the glasses just before serving.
