Pomegranite Margarita

½ oz. pomegranate juice, plus more for rimming the glass
Pinch of salt, plus more for rimming the glass
3 oz. blanco tequila
1 oz. lime juice
1 tablespoon pomegranate molasses
½ oz. pomegranate liqueur (like PAMA)
¼ oz. pomegranate concentrate (optional)
Pomegranate seeds for garnish

Instructions:
Pour pomegranate juice to a depth of about ¼ inch in a bowl wide enough to fit the rim of your glass. Pour salt into a bowl of similar size.

For each cocktail, dip the rim of the glass in pomegranate juice, and then in salt, to make a salt-encrusted rim.

Fill each glass with crushed ice.

Combine all ingredients in a strainer filled with ice.

Shake thoroughly, and strain into the salt-rimmed, ice-filled glass.

Garnish with pomegranate seeds.
