Grenadine Syrup is a sweet, tart non-alcoholic liquid that can be used to give drinks a touch of tanginess and color. It's traditionally made from pomegranate, but you can make it from other fruits as well, such as black currants, cherries, and raspberries.
Historically grenadine has been a natural pomegranate based syrup, used to enhance the natural flavors and colors of drinks, by giving them a reddish or pinkish hue. Today, grenadine can be made from sugar, high-fructose syrup and citric acid. This provides the sweetness required to enhance the taste of a beverage.
There are a lot of grenadine recipes to choose from, but some can be easily made at home with simple ingredients. You can either make your own grenadine using fresh pomegranate or buy the bottle variety at your local supermarket.
The first step in making your own grenadine is to decide how much of the pomegranate juice you want to add to the syrup. You can add half a glass of the juice to your syrup, or use all of it for a more intense pomegranate flavour.
Once you've calculated how much pomegranate-juice to add, it is time to simmer it with sugar and a small saucepan. Continue to cook until the mixture reaches your desired consistency. The sugar should not be burned, but you will need to stir it frequently. Once the syrup has boiled, remove it from the heat and allow it to cool before bottling it.
This is a beautiful and delicious way to use grenadine. It's a great drink to bring to parties and is perfect for people who don't drink alcohol.
