Real Grenadine, Fast and Easy
May 2, 2009
The florescent bottle you bought isn’t grenadine; it’s the bastard red-headed stepchild, but thanks to the public demand for antioxidants, pomegranate juice is now available in every store in the double-bubble bottle, so we can all make our own grenadine, the right way.
Grenadine Recipe
1 16-ounce bottle of Pom (pomegranate juice)
1 cup of granulated sugar
1 shot of vodka (preferably high proof)
Simmer the juice until reduced by half, then stir in sugar to dissolve, and add vodka.
Let cool before pouring back into original bottle.

Do you know how long it will keep? Does it need to stay in the fridge?
The vodka is in there as a preservative. It will keep for months in the refrigerator.
Ooooh I’ll have to try this. Grenadine makes me hot.
