Easy to prepare, and gratifying, the grenadine can be used with soda, milk or sparkling wine – we had this drink, decorated with fresh pomegranate arils, for Christmas dinner!

Preparation

Juice the pomegranate. (I use the blender to do so: I pulse the seeds for a few times, and strain the juice through a sieve pressing with the back of a tablespoon to collect as much liquid as possible.)

In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine the pomegranate juice and sugar. Stirring constantly, cook for about 7 minutes or until slightly thickened and not cloudy any longer.

Remove from the heat, and let it cool at room temperature. Stir in the lemon juice and orange flower water. Transfer the grenadine to a small bottle with a lid. Keep in the fridge.

Hi, I'm Gaëlle. After years of eating junk and processed foods, I made in September 2012 the life-changing decision to eat healthy and adopt a flexitarian wholefood diet. And I never looked back.
