Has anyone made this? I cannot find the frozen pom-cherry juice concentrate anywhere.
 
I haven't been able to find it around here either. I also can never seem to find the raspberry stuff the Cran-Razz fizz calls for.
 
Alibene - I've made it many times and everyone loves it:) I couldn't find the Pom-Cherry combo here in Nova Scotia either, but my store does carry "regular" frozen Pom Juice, so I use that whenever I make it.

If your store carries any other type of Pom flavour combo, you could give that a try and compare taste to using just the Pom juice. My store only has frozen Pom, no flavour combos so I haven't been able to do a taste comparison myself.

Like most PC recipes, fiddling with it because of available ingredients can still have great results:) Even though I have only ever used 'regular" frozen Pom juice, that hasn't slowed down the speed with which it disappers;)

HTH

Cheers,
