Shots of sugar anyone? What I really like to see in grenadine is tartness that can hold up in cocktails and offers more than just sweetness. Do you have a favorite grenadine you swear by? Side note: These are my preferences, but I encourage you to experiment and form your own opinion around what works best for you!

Well actually the first grenadine was made with pomegranates but it was "replaced" (at least here in France) with a combination of red fruits with lemon juice. That's why I was confused to see you using pomegranate for your homemade. Also if you are interested about various syrups, you can go take a look at all the Monin syrups, it can be worth the time.

It wouldn't surprise me if it's what's used in the bookend Grenadines.

Do you know the only difference between a natural and artificial flavor? The source, and only the source. You can have the same chemical, but if it was extracted from a plant or animal, it's natural. If it was synthesized, it's artificial, even if they're the same final product.

Here in Brazil I think they are required to list more information on the label, and it said there's 10% fruit juice, from various berries. You could just look at the front of the label, that's what's in it. IIRC it's like blackcurrant, raspberry and blackberry (and maybe elderberries? not sure), plus vanilla.

It took me a while to get around to watching this one, and I feel strangely vindicated with the choice of Liber & Co. I started buying from them solely because they're a local Texas company, and especially in these past 2 years it's important to support your local economy. However, as I've tried more and more of their products the more I have no interest in trying other brands. Their grenadine, orgeat, and passion fruit syrups are my favorites, but they also have an excellent blood orange cordial and two different grapefruit cordials that help to make some unique cocktails.
