pomegranate juice

Pomegranate juice is extracted from the arils (seeds) of the fruit of the pomegranate. The juice is very flavorful on its own, it can be sweet or sour, but most fruits are moderate in taste. The juice can be reduced down into pomegranate molasses or fermented into pomegranate vinegar.
