This Midnight Mirage cocktail is an odyssey for your taste buds, blending the smoothness of Blanton's Bourbon Whiskey with the tangy sweetness of pomegranate juice and the zesty zip of lemon-ginger syrup. The elderflower liqueur adds a hint of whimsical wonder, while the club soda gives it a refreshing, effervescent finish. Sip slowly, close your eyes, and let the magic unfold.
