Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup pomegranate juice (preferably unsweetened)
- 1 cup sugar
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
Instructions
Combine Ingredients: In a medium saucepan, combine the pomegranate juice and sugar. Stir over medium heat until the sugar is fully dissolved.
- Simmer: Once the sugar is dissolved, bring the mixture to a simmer. Let it cook for about 10 minutes, or until it has slightly thickened.
- Add Lemon Juice: Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the lemon juice. This adds a hint of tartness that balances the sweetness.
- Cool and Store: Let the syrup cool to room temperature before transferring it to a clean jar or bottle. Store in the refrigerator for up to a month.
Notes
- For a richer flavor, you can let the syrup simmer a bit longer, but be cautious not to overcook it as it will thicken more upon cooling.
- If you prefer a thicker syrup, you can increase the simmering time slightly.
