A bright red syrup made from pomegranate juice, used in cooking and drinks like grenadine cocktails.
From French 'grenadine', from 'grenade' (pomegranate), the source fruit, with -ine suffix indicating a derived product or substance.
Grenadine syrup became iconic in cocktail culture partly through visual spectacle—bartenders loved how the ruby-red liquid sank through clear drinks, creating dramatic color layers.
