1/2 cup fresh lime juice
1/4 cup simple syrup (optional, adjust to taste)
2 cups sparkling water or club soda, chilled
Fresh pomegranate seeds, for garnish
Lime slices, for garnish
Instructions
In a large pitcher, combine the pomegranate juice, cranberry juice, orange juice, and lime juice.
Stir in the simple syrup, if using. Taste and add more if you prefer a sweeter punch.

Notes
For an adult version, add a splash of vodka or white rum to individual glasses.
You can make the juice base ahead of time and refrigerate it for up to 2 days. Add the sparkling water just before serving to maintain fizziness.
Adjust the sweetness by adding more or less simple syrup, or by using a sweeter juice blend.
