Frequently Asked Questions
What makes this grenadine different from grocery store options?
This grenadine uses real pomegranate purée and rose petals—never corn syrup or artificial colors—recreating the traditional 19th-century recipe for balanced, nuanced flavor instead of candy-like sweetness.
Which cocktails and mocktails is this grenadine recommended for?
It’s ideal for Tequila Sunrises, Jack Rose, Shirley Temples, French 75s, Tom Collins, and any recipe calling for grenadine, providing authentic tart-sweet flavor and deep color.
Does the rose in the recipe make the syrup taste perfumey?
The rose petals give a delicate, subtle floral note without dominating the flavor. The result is balanced and not perfumed—consistent with verified customer feedback and traditional recipes.

Bottled grenadine ensures consistency, longer shelf life, and a balanced traditional flavor without the prep time or potential waste of home batches. Glass bottle helps preserve quality.
