This blushed drink is refreshment with a cherry on top!

Ingredients

• 1 cup sugar
• 1/2 cup pomegranate juice
• Club soda, for serving
• Maraschino cherries, for garnish (optional)

Preparation

Step 1

In a small saucepan, combine sugar and juice; bring to a boil over high, stirring until sugar has dissolved. Reduce to a simmer; cook, without stirring, until mixture is syrupy, about 2 minutes. (To store, refrigerate syrup up to 1 week; adjust consistency with water, if necessary.)
