This Red Carpet cocktail is completely different than the Red Carpet debuted during the 2008 Academy Awards. Where that one had cranberry and Patron Tequila, this 2009 debut features the oh-so-smooth Oval Vodka, Campari and the ever popular flavor of pomegranate. The Campari transforms this from an ordinary vodka cocktail into a before Oscar dinner party delight and, in the end, gives the drink some complexity that differentiates it from just another pomegranate Martini. Overall, The Red Carpet is an impressive drink, worthy of an Oscar itself.

- 1 1/2 oz Oval Vodka
- 1 oz Campari
- 1 oz Hiram Walker Pomegranate Schnapps
- 1 oz pomegranate juice
- 1/2 oz simple syrup
