Ingredients
- 4 cups pomegranate juice
- ½ cup sugar
- 1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lemon juice
- ⅛ teaspoon ground cinnamon (optional)
Instructions
- In a 4-quart saucepan, combine the pomegranate juice, sugar and lemon juice. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the sugar has completely dissolved.
- Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer, uncovered, for about 1 hour or until the mixture has reduced to about 1 cup.
- Remove from heat and allow it to cool in the saucepan for 30 minutes. It should be sticky and will thicken as it cools. Once syrup cools, transfer to a glass jar and store in the refrigerator for up to 6 months.
