Pomegranate Syrup - Ridgedale Orchard & Vineyard

Pomegranate Syrup

$14.00
Available:  Nov. 2021

Our Wonderful Pomegranates make an amazing flavorful syrup.
Made from freshly pressed pomegranate arils (seeds) from
sun ripened pomegranates grown in our orchard. The juice is then handcrafted into syrup with less sugar than traditional recipes. 
We use only cane sugar in our products, never high fructose corn syrup. Our Pomegranate Syrup is superb on ice cream, yogurt and in snow cones and slush drinks. Add it to beverages, use it in marinades and glazes for chicken, fish and lamb.

Pomegranates may be the oldest propagated fruit dating back to ancient times. It is native to the area from Iran to northern India and was introduced into California in 1769 by Spanish settlers. Pomegranates grow in a semi-arid mild Mediterranean climate, so Lake Mathews is a perfect location to grow them. In fact fruiting is impaired in a humid environment.

We grow the Wonderful variety which is known for its large red, juicy, sweet and tangy fruit. Pomegranates are known for their health benefits and are packed with antioxidants. Our Wonderful pomegranates are one of the first trees to bud out in early spring and one of the last to harvest in October.
