How to make it

4 steps. Take it one step at a time.

  1. Combine the pomegranate juice, sugar, and lemon juice

    In a wide saucepan, combine the pomegranate juice, sugar, and lemon juice.

  2. Place over medium-high heat

    Place over medium-high heat and stir until the sugar has dissolved. Bring the mixture to a boil.

  3. Reduce the heat to low and simmer uncovered

    Reduce the heat to low and simmer uncovered for about 20 minutes, or until the liquid has reduced to approximately 1 cup (240ml) and has the consistency of a thick syrup.

    20 min

  4. Remove from heat and let cool

    Remove from heat and let cool in the pan. Pour into a glass jar and store in the refrigerator.

A little kitchen wisdom

For a thicker sauce, simmer for an extra 5-10 minutes. It will continue to thicken significantly as it cools. Always use 100% pure pomegranate juice for the best results.

Keep the good going

For now. And for later.

Make it ahead

This sauce keeps exceptionally well and can be made weeks in advance.

Store & enjoy

Store in an airtight glass container in the refrigerator. If it becomes too thick to pour after refrigeration, let it sit at room temperature for 10 minutes. Rarely needs reheating, but can be thinned with a teaspoon of warm water if necessary.
