Spiced Pomegranate Syrup

This sweet and spicy wine reduction is amazing over baked or grilled fruit, adds a rich tang to sweet vanilla ice cream or jazzes up waffles for brunch. Will impress your dinner party guests with a simple, yet gourmet style sauce.

Cook and stir until mixture thickens to a syrupy consistency or when it can coat the back of a spoon.
