Hints

  1. This recipe comes from jeffreymorgenthaler.com. In the article, he includes more information about how to make grenadine entirely from scratch. There's a ton of useful articles in his website, so make sure you check them out!

  2. You can often find all the ingredients necessary for this recipe in Middle Eastern food stores. You can also find it in stores that sell kosher goods.

  3. We discuss grenadine as well as other frequently used bar syrups (like orgeat and ginger syrup) in our second lesson on Sweetness.

  4. In order to use up your grenadine before it goes bad, consider mixing it with some lime and water (or club soda) for a tasty non-alcoholic drink. You can also drizzle it over ice cream!
