How to make fresh grenadine

Fresh Grenadine is soooo much tastier than the bottled stuff.

Ingredients needed:

• 1 1/2 parts sugar
• 1 part pomegranite juice

Directions:

• Combine sugar and pomegranite juice in a large pot
• Bring to a boil while stirring frequently
• Remove at once from the heat (you don’t want this to boil over!)
• Cool to room temperature

You can use the grenadine immediately for cocktails. Store the unused portion in an air tight container in the refrigerator for cocktails anytime. For a lighter version, combine equal parts sugar and juice.
