This 32 fl oz bottle of grenadine is a bit of a mixed bag. On the positive side, it uses cane sugar for sweetening rather than high-fructose corn syrup, which is a step in the right direction. However, it unfortunately uses Red #40 for coloring, which is something I am definitely not a fan of.As for the flavor, I found it to be too sweet and somewhat lacking in that authentic, tart grenadine punch. At $17 at the time of my order, it’s not a terrible value for the volume, but I personally don't see myself ordering it again. If you aren't bothered by artificial food coloring and prefer a sweet syrup, it might be worth a try, but it didn't quite hit the mark for me.
This 2 pack of grenadine syrup for cocktails bottles are an excellent value they taste pretty good plus a little goes a long way I noticed that these bottles don’t have a lot of ingredients which is great the only thing I don’t like is that they contain red 40 which is not good it would be nice if they would leave that out overall the taste and sizes are good
What can I say? Its a very delicious pomegranate syrup that made me feel a little like a bar tender when serving up drinks to teh family. I noticed some pulp in the mix which is great for me as I love it. Its very sweet as stated before which helps mask the alcohol but made the drink in the pictures very refreshing (Vodka, lemonade and grenadine). If you're looking for a great mixer definitely don't over look this.
My kids love this in kiddie cocktails. I love that there's no high fructose corn syrup.

This Lily's Mixers Grenadine Syrup for Cocktails comes with two large bottles of grenadine and features can syrup as the main ingredient. What I like most about the syrup is the that you get a large quantity for the price. Quality is moderate to good as the grenadine taste lacks the punch of proper grenadine syrup though the sugar content adds an extra kick to the drinks. Oddly, there is significant crystallization in both the syrup and after it makes contact with a cold beverage. The other major concern is that this is made with Red #40 which is a subpar ingredient known to have significant issues. The color of the grenadine syrup is accurate as shown. Functionally, this is easy to use, simply mix the syrup with your drink of choice and enjoy. For the price, this grenadine syrup provides a reasonable amount of value. Overall, recommend this item with some caveats. 3.5/5
This grenadine syrup tastes great and has a rich color, perfect for visually pleasing drinks. The bottle is huge and mine expires in about a year and a half. It is 80 calories per serving with 21 carbs. I really like that the first ingredient is cane sugar, giving it a great taste. The ingredient list is very short. I also love that it has a mix for a Tequila Sunrise printed on the label as well as a QR code for more recipes, being an awesome inclusion for people interested in experimenting with drinks. I think this is a pretty great quality mixer.
This Lily's Mixers Grenadine Syrup for Cocktails – Our Large 32 oz Bottle comes in a 2 pack of sealed bottles that are easy to open. This is a good quality syrup that mixes easily with other liquids and dissolves easily. The ingredients are Water, Real Cane Sugar, Citric Acid, Natural Flavors, Potassium Sorbate, Sodium Benzoate, and FD&C Blue No. 40. I like how this uses real cane sugar which makes it sweet but not overly sweet. You can adjust accordingly and use less if you want it less sugary and more if you want more sweetness. Overall, these are moderately priced but is great for mixing for cocktails. This two pack will last for a good period of time given how much you receive.
This is a decent syrup, but it's extremely sweet! A lot sweeter than I was expecting it to be. Grenadine is usually fairly bitter on its own and used to add a particular flavor to a drink. This is only slightly related to grenadine in my opinion, it's not really "bitter" at all since it's a syrup. You really need to have something specific in mind for this where you don't treat it like normal grenadine, and you should use it sparingly or else it will overpower your drink.All that said: it DOES mix very well, it does provide a lot of sweetness, and there is quite a lot of it for the price - a really good value for the amount of syrup you get. I would personally recommend trying a different flavor if you aren't sure about this one though.
