Pomegranate Syrup (aka Grenadine)

Why buy bottles of grenadine when it's so easy to make at home, the natural way? This garnet-hued, sweetly piquant syrup is a great addition to any number of beverages for both its color and its flavor—and it makes a delicious soda on its own, too. Use high-quality bottled pomegranate juice, or make your own.

Ingredients

Makes about 2 1/2 cups

2 cups pomegranate juice
1 cup caster sugar
Pinch of salt
  1. Combine the pomegranate juice, sugar, and salt in a tightly lidded container. Shake until the sugar is dissolved. Store in an airtight container for up to 14 days.
