Unlike other grenadines, True Grenadine Syrup is made the original way, without dyes or corn syrups. By using two kinds of pomegranate juices and cane sugar, True Grenadine is sweet and tart. Pomegranate juice was the original base of grenadine until the WWI blockades forced the switch to cheaper cherry flavorings.
True grenadine can be used to make many classic cocktails, as well as an authentic Shirley Temple when mixed with ginger ale. Use it in place of simple syrup in any recipe to make a pomegranate version of that cocktail.
