Ingredients
- 4 cups pomegranate juice (store-bought or homemade)
- 3/4 cup sugar (or to taste)
- 3 tablespoons lemon juice
Instructions
Mix all the ingredients
- In a medium saucepan or pot, add pomegranate juice, sugar, and lemon juice over medium-high heat. Bring to a boil and stir to make sure the sugar is dissolved properly.
Boil down the mixture to a thick syrup
- Reduce heat and let it simmer uncovered for about 1.5 hours. Stir occasionally. Make sure the mixture is not burned.
- Dip a spoon into the mixture. If it coats the back of the spoon, it is done cooking. (Don’t worry if it’s not thick enough as it will thickens more as it cools.)
- Turn off the heat and pour the mixture into a container, allowing it to cool to room temperature (for about 30 minutes)
Serve and store
- Once it’s completely cool, pour it into a jar. Serve and enjoy!
- For the leftovers, cover with lid and store in the refrigerator.
Notes
- As store-bought pomegranate has different acidity and sweetness level, you’ll need to adjust the ingredients according to your preference.
- Make sure not to over-cook your molasses, otherwise, the color will turn to dark brown, or even get burned.
- Note that the mixture will become much thicker after it cools down.
