Pomegranate Gimlets

An hour before serving, chill 6 martini glasses.

Combine the gin, pomegranate juice, lime juice and ¹⁄₂ cup of simple syrup in a large pitcher. Fill a cocktail shaker half full with ice and add the drink mixture until the shaker is three quarters full. Shake for a full 15 seconds and pour the mixture into the frozen martini glasses. Garnish with a teaspoon of pomegranate seeds and a slice of lime. Repeat with the remaiing drink mixture and serve ice cold.
