It helps put the sun in a Tequila Sunrise and stars other classic cocktails. Grenadine is a pomegranate juice-based syrup that's very easy to make at home. Why bother? Well store-bought grenadine contains high-fructose corn syrup and various artificial colors and preservatives. Our two-ingredient grenadine has more fruit flavor and less sugar.

Yield Makes about 4 ounces

Number Of Ingredients 2

6 ounces unsweetened pomegranate juice, such as Elite Naturel (www.organicjuiceusa.com)
3 ounces superfine sugar

Steps:

  • Bring juice to simmer over medium heat and cook until reduced by half, about 7 minutes. Reduce heat and add sugar, stirring constantly until dissolved, about 2 minutes. Let cool, cover, and refrigerate syrup until cold, about 30 minutes. (Can be made 1 week ahead. Keep chilled.)

Tips:

  • Use ripe pomegranates: The riper the pomegranates, the sweeter and more flavorful your grenadine will be.
  • Extract the juice carefully: When juicing the pomegranates, be careful not to break the seeds. If you do, the grenadine will be bitter.
  • Simmer gently: When simmering the grenadine, be sure to do so over low heat. This will help to preserve the delicate flavor of the pomegranate juice.
  • Strain the grenadine thoroughly: Once the grenadine has simmered, strain it through a fine-mesh sieve to remove any seeds or pulp.
  • Store the grenadine properly: Store the grenadine in a sterilized glass jar or bottle. It will keep in the refrigerator for up to 2 months.

Conclusion:

Homemade grenadine is a delicious and versatile ingredient that can be used in a variety of cocktails and mocktails. It's also a great way to use up leftover pomegranates. With a little time and effort, you can easily make your own grenadine at home. So next time you're looking for a special ingredient to add to your favorite drink, give homemade grenadine a try.
