  1. Make the sage Dolin Rouge: In a small bowl, combine the Dolin Rouge and sage leaves, cover with plastic wrap, and allow to steep overnight. Remove the sage leaves and reserve for later.
  2. Make the cocktail: In a copper julep tin, stir all of the ingredients with ¼ cup of crushed ice until chilled. Top off the cocktail with more crushed ice and form into a dome-like shape overflowing from the tin cup. Garnish with sage, lime zest and pomegranate seeds, then serve with 2 straws.
