Pomegranate Syrup

1. Stir all ingredients in a pan over medium heat until sugar is dissolved.
2. When mixture begins to simmer, lower heat if needed to maintain simmer.
3. Stir occasionally and make sure it doesn't raise to a high boil, or the juice will become bitter and burnt tasting.
4. When mixture has reduced to about 1/2 to 1/3 of its volume and coats a wooden spoon (about 1 hour or so), take it off heat and let it cool in the pan.
5. Keep syrup in a jar in the refrigerator.

Use this syrup to drizzle over a salad, mix in a vinaigrette, finish a rice pilaf, or glaze roasted chicken.  It complements and raises many of your favorite recipes, try it!
