Homemade Pomegranate Syrup

I'm sharing yet another new recipe.  I had already written this recipe down on a recipe card, so once again, I have no idea where I obtained it.  I'm sure I've had it in my recipe pile for over 6 years or so.

I'm sharing because there are days when I am hankering for pancakes for waffles and have no syrup on hand.

You make this by using pomegranate juice and honey:


Mix 1 cup of pomegranate juice with 2 Tablespoons of honey.  Bring to a boil, then reduce temperature to medium.  Simmer mixture until it reduces to syrup - approximately 15 minutes.  Remove from heat and let cool.

I found this to thicken up better after placing in the refrigerator overnight (before using).

The taste? 

Absolutely delicious.  I used it on homemade blueberry, whole wheat pancakes.   I'll be sure to make this ahead of the weekends, when we are more prone to bake up a larger breakfast.
