Garnet Anar

White rum garnet anar with bright pomegranate sparkle

Garnet Anar is crafted from the heart of the pomegranate, a fruit long treasured across India for its colour, sweetness, and quiet luxury. As the ruby seeds rest in white rum, they release their hue slowly, like a gemstone being polished by time. Lemon brightens the fruit’s natural depth, honey adds velvety softness, and a whisper of cardamom and mace brings gentle warmth without clouding its clarity. What emerges is a liqueur that shines with jewel-like brilliance—clear, vivid, and elegant—made to be sipped when you want flavour, beauty, and a little ceremony in one glass.

Pomegranate Seeds – 500 g

Green Cardamom – 1 pod

Preparation

Remove seeds carefully, keeping all membrane out to ensure perfect clarity.

Place all seeds into a clean glass jar.

Add white sugar and honey over the aromatics.
Pour in 1 L white rum and stir gently until the sugar begins dissolving.
