Notes
To make the pomegranate reduction:
In a small sauce pan, combine 4 cups 100% pomegranate juice, 1/2 cup of sugar, and 1/4 cup lime juice (freshly squeezed)
Bring it to a simmer, let it continue to simmer until the mixture is reduced to about half. It will thicken to a syrup consistency and coat a spoon. It takes about an hour.
Cool completely and store in a covered container or jar in the refrigerator.
You only need 1/2 cup of the reduction for this recipe. Use the left overs in salad dressing, drizzled over vegetables, drizzled over ice cream or other fruit desserts, add some to your coffee or hot chocolate.
