2 T pomegranate molasses
1 T sugar
2 T honey

combine all ingredients in sauce pan, reduce to 1/2 c, strain pressing garlic through

*I just re-worked this recipe and I added half of a peeled cameo apple (tartly sweet) which cooks down and dissolves like the garlic, and then put in slices of the other half of apple and fuyu persimmons to warm them up and served it with garam masala roasted chicken. Yum.

1/2 c watermelon chunks, pureed
2 T olive oil
1 T white wine or champagne vinegar
salt and pepper to taste
