Pomegranate molasses

Jar of pomegranate molasses, an ingredient for cocktails

Pomegranate molasses is grenadine’s handsome older brother – richer, sexier, stronger. It’s made from reduces pomegranate juice, and typically has sugar and a little lemon juice or citric acid added.

We buy ours at the local Middle Eastern grocery, but check the labels carefully! There are often two varieties on offer, a sweet one and a sour one. Make sure you pick the sweet molasses!

Got a bumper crop of pomegranates? It’s easy to make your own pomegranate molasses. In a pot, combine 4 cups (or about 1000 mL) of pomegranate juice, 2 cups (500 mL) sugar, and 2 tablesppons (30 mL) of lemon juice. Cook on medium-high until the sugar dissolves, then reduce heat and simmer for about an hour. Let cool, pour into a bottle, and store in the refrigerator.

Gut mit Luft nach oben

Ich war auf der Suche nach einer Cocktail Datenbank mit der ich mir zuverlässig die Drinks anzeigen lassen kann, für die ich auch die Zutaten im Hause habe. Mit Cocktail Flow klappt das leider nicht verlässlich. Dieses Programm macht das vorbildlich und vor allem listet es die Cocktails auch danach auf, wo mir noch eine, zwei usw. Zutaten fehlt. So kann ich auch immer schauen was ich mir ggf. noch kaufen sollte. Die Auswahl an Getränken ist gut, jedoch mit wenig Sirup-haltigen. Hier würd ich mir mehr Rezepte wünschen wo man die div. Fruchtsirupe einsetzen kann. Auch gibt es leider keine Möglichkeit Cocktails als Favoriten zu kennzeichnen oder das Rezept zu exportieren. Da das Programm nur in Englisch ist muss man in der Zutatenliste manchmal googlen was damit gemeint ist. Mit ein paar Rezepten mehr, Favoritenfunktion und Lokalisierung gibt es fünf Sterne.
Translation: I was looking for a cocktail database with which I can reliably display the drinks for which I also have the ingredients in the house. Unfortunately, this does not work reliably with cocktail flow. This program does the exemplary and above all it lists the cocktails also after, where I still missing one, two etc. ingredients. So I can always look what I should possibly buy. The selection of drinks is good, but with little syrup-containing. Here I would want more recipes where you can use the div. Fruit syrups. Unfortunately, there is no way to mark cocktails as favorites or to export the recipe. Since the program is only in English you have to googling in the list of ingredients sometimes what is meant by that. With a few more recipes, favorites and localization, there are five stars.
