help Monin Grenadine Syrup FAQ
Does Monin Grenadine Syrup contain alcohol?
No, grenadine is a nonalcoholic syrup despite its exotic-sounding name. The word comes from the French 'grenade,' meaning pomegranate, which is the flavor Monin's version is built around.
Is Monin grenadine made with real pomegranate juice?
It is a pomegranate-flavored sweetened syrup rather than pure pomegranate juice. That emphasis distinguishes it from mass-market brands like Rose's, which is often described as leaning toward a cherry-like flavor with corn syrup.
What classic drinks use grenadine?
The two most famous are the Tequila Sunrise (tequila, orange juice, and grenadine) and the nonalcoholic Shirley Temple (ginger ale or lemon-lime soda plus grenadine). The Jack Rose cocktail, made with applejack, lemon juice, and grenadine, is another classic use.
Does Monin Grenadine need to be refrigerated after opening?
Monin syrups, including grenadine, do not require refrigeration after opening because their high sugar content acts as a preservative. Store the bottle in a cool, dark place and expect best flavor within a few months of opening.
