How to Make Pomegranate Syrup
- **Juice Extraction:** Gently press 1 ½ to 2 cups of pomegranate seeds into a blender.
- **Blend:** Blend until completely liquefied. This may take a minute or two depending on your blender.
- **Strain:** Line a fine-mesh sieve or cheesecloth over a bowl. Pour the blended mixture into the sieve and gently press with a spatula or spoon to extract the juice, discarding the solids.
- **Syrup Preparation:** In a medium saucepan (1-2 quart), combine 1 cup of pomegranate juice with 1 cup of granulated sugar.
- **Dissolve Sugar:** Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring constantly until the sugar is completely dissolved.
- **Simmer:** Reduce the heat to low and simmer for 1 minute, stirring occasionally. Do not boil vigorously.
- **Cool & Refrigerate:** Remove from heat and let cool completely. Once cooled, cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or up to 2 weeks. The flavor will deepen over time.
- **Enjoy!** Use your pomegranate syrup to elevate cocktails, dressings, desserts, or enjoy it by the spoonful!
