Chad's Pomegranate Rye

This cocktail is a twist on the classic Ward Eight, with a reduced amount of orange juice and an added touch of lemon juice. Bartender Chad Arnholt's version brings a perfect balance of flavors, combining the richness of rye whiskey with the tartness of pomegranate grenadine and lemon juice. It's a refreshing and sophisticated cocktail with a delightful citrusy kick.
