For a less sweet martini, reduce the amount of simple syrup to 1 ounce. If you don't have citron vodka, plain vodka works well, but add a few drops of lemon extract to the shaker. To make simple syrup, combine equal parts sugar and water in a saucepan. Heat over medium heat, stirring until the sugar is completely dissolved. Let cool before using. Extra simple syrup can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks. Ensure your ingredients are well-chilled before beginning for the best results. Garnish with a few pomegranate seeds for an extra touch of elegance.
