Pomegranate Shrub

"Clever chefs use this shrub to season salad dressings and impress their guests. But it also works very well in winter desserts or for refining sauces."

Shrub is the traditional name for a vinegar-based fruit syrup. Traditionally, shrub consists of only three ingredients: fruit, vinegar, and sugar. These three components harmonize perfectly, creating a syrup whose flavor is particularly enhanced by the subtle acetic acid.

Preparation: Mix 1:5 with water or use neat to refine baked goods, salads and hearty dishes.

Pomegranate Shrub – a zesty drinking vinegar with fruity power

A shrub is a syrup made from fruit, sugar, and vinegar, which is drunk diluted. For the pomegranate shrub, pomegranate seeds and juice are macerated with sugar until they release their juice. This juice is then mixed with vinegar and left to infuse for a few days. The result is a bright red syrup with an intense fruit flavor and mild acidity.

Pomegranate shrub is perfect as a base for lemonades, mocktails, and cocktails. Mix one to two centiliters of shrub with mineral water, sparkling wine, or tonic water for a refreshing drink with an oriental sweetness. Desserts, fruit salads, and yogurt also benefit from a splash of this syrup.

Since shrubs contain sugar, they should be consumed in moderation. They are alcohol-free and offer a refreshing alternative to ready-made syrups or sodas. The vinegar provides a pleasant acidity, but the product is not a health food.

Tip: For a summery aperitif, simply mix pomegranate shrub, mineral water, fresh mint and ice – and you have a non-alcoholic treat.

Pomegranate Shrub: refreshing vinegar syrup

Our pomegranate shrub is more than just a vinegar drink – it's a vibrant homage to the age-old tradition of drinking vinegars. At the Adrian Manufaktur, we combine high-quality apple cider vinegar with reduced pomegranate juice to create a balanced shrub that impresses with its fruity depth, pleasant sweetness, and invigorating acidity.

The base is our naturally cloudy organic apple cider vinegar, refined with gently concentrated pomegranate juice. The result: an intensely ruby-red shrub bursting with flavor, real fruit, and a delicate, harmoniously integrated acidity – completely free of artificial flavors, concentrates, or additives.

Sour and sweet with an oriental touch

Pomegranate is known for its subtly tart aroma and balanced combination of sweetness and acidity. This profile is particularly evident in Adrian Shrub: it smells of ripe seeds, red berries, and a hint of wildflowers. On the palate, it is lively, crisp, yet smooth – ideal for those seeking natural refreshment with character.

Thanks to its natural fruit sugar and mild vinegar base, it never tastes too harsh or overpowering, but remains elegant and pleasantly drinkable.

Versatile enjoyment – not just in a glass

Traditionally, shrub was drunk diluted with water – and that's precisely what makes it so appealing even today. A splash of Adrian pomegranate shrub in ice-cold mineral water creates a non-alcoholic, natural refreshment that puts any lemonade to shame. It's also a real insider tip with tonic, ginger ale, or as a base for cocktails.

Furthermore, shrub is excellent for refining dressings, marinades, or desserts – for example, over berries, vanilla pudding, or stirred into yogurt. Those who are creative will quickly come to appreciate shrub as a staple in their kitchen.

Honest. Natural. Adrian.

For our pomegranate shrub, we use only natural, organic ingredients – most notably our apple cider vinegar from organically grown orchard fruit and real pomegranate juice. We completely avoid refined sugar, concentrates, or flavorings. Every drop is crafted with great care, in small batches, and according to a time-honored artisanal process.

Please store in a cool, dark place – and preferably in a highly visible location, as this shrub will quickly become a favorite drink.
