Grenadine
|
Grenadine is traditionally a red syrup made from pomegranate juice concentrate and sugar, although some grenadines now are artificial and contain no juice. It is used as an ingredient in cocktails, both for its flavor and to give a pink tinge to mixed drinks. It is commonly used to mix "cherry" Coca-Colas, to make pink lemonade, and to flavor soaked cherries, making them bright red. These are in turn often used in fruitcakes.
