Steps

90 minutes

1

Grab a lemon and roll it against your palm and hard surface(It will maximize juice output). Cut in half and squeeze into a bowl by any means necessary. Make sure it's fresh 100% juice. Put aside for the moment.
2

In a 4 quart saucepan set over medium add the Pomegranate juice. Warm it for 3 - 5 mins.
3

Once it's warmed up add the sugar and stir until the sugar dissolves completely.
4

Now that the juice and sugar are one, toss in the lemon juice and stir it in well.
5

Turn the heat to medium-low and walk away from the pan(not too far).
6

Let the mixture simmer and reduce for approximately 70 minutes or until its volume has reduced to a cup or cup and a quarter(depending how syrupy you want your grenadine). DO NOT STIR!!While it's reducing. For me about 70 mins is plenty of time.
7

After it's reduced to the consistency of your liking. Take the saucepan off the heat and let cool in the pan 20-30 minutes.
8

Transfer to a clean, sanitized glass jar and allow to cool completely before covering and storing it in the fridge.
9

Enjoy for up to 6 months if well stored. I prefer Mason Jars.

I should mention I made this to add to my pomegranate mixture for homemade Grenadine. I use it at the bar I work at. Everyone loves it!
