Halve the pomegranates, squeeze them well on a citrus press and let the juice flow through a sieve.
Mix the juice with the sugar. Bring slowly to a boil over low heat and cook for about 10 minutes, completely dissolving the sugar while stirring constantly.
Take off the stove and skim. Fill the syrup into well-sterilized bottles while still hot and close them immediately.
Yield: 2 bottles of 0.5 liters each. Stored in a cool, dark place, the syrup can be kept for approx. 2 years.
