Description
Kings Grenadine 500ml is a red grenadine cocktail syrup from Kings, used to add sweetness, fruit flavour and a deep ruby colour to mixed drinks. Grenadine takes its name from the French word for pomegranate, the fruit it was traditionally made from, and it remains one of the most common syrups behind the bar.

Grenadine is the ingredient that gives a Tequila Sunrise its layered sunset look, as the dense syrup sinks to the bottom of the glass. It also goes into classic cocktails such as the Jack Rose and the Bacardi Cocktail, and into non-alcoholic drinks like a Shirley Temple with lemonade or ginger ale.

Because it is heavier than most spirits and juices, grenadine is useful for layered drinks: pour it slowly down the side of the glass or over the back of a spoon and it settles in a red band. A small amount is enough to colour and sweeten a drink, and it can also be drizzled over ice cream or stirred into soda water for a simple fruit soda.
Expect a sweet, red fruit flavour with a light tartness, and a thick, syrupy texture.
A handy home bar staple for anyone who makes Tequila Sunrises, layered drinks or colourful mocktails.
