The pomegranate (Punica granatum) is a fruit-bearing, deciduous shrub in the family Lythraceae, subfamily Punicoideae, that grows between 5 and 10 m (16 and 33 ft) tall. Rich in symbolic and mythological associations in many cultures, it is thought to have originated from Iran before being introduced and exported to other parts of Asia, Africa, and Europe, though also considered to be native to Indian Subcontinent and Afghanistan.

It was introduced into Spanish America in the late 16th century and into California by Spanish settlersIt is widely cultivated throughout West Asia and the Caucasus region, South Asia, Central Asia, north and tropical Africa, the drier parts of Southeast Asia, and the Mediterranean Basin. The fruit is typically in season in the Northern Hemisphere from September to February, and in the Southern Hemisphere from March to May.nThe pomegranate and its juice are variously used in baking, cooking, juice blends, garnishes, nonalcoholic drinks, and cocktails.

The name “pomegranate” derives from medieval Latin pōmum, apple and grānātum, seeded. Possibly stemming from the old French word for the fruit, pomme-grenade, the pomegranate was known in early English as apple of Granada. This is a folk etymology, confusing the Latin granatus with the name of the Spanish city of Granada, which is derived from an unrelated Arabic word.

Garnet derives from Old French grenat by metathesis, from Medieval Latin granatum as used in a different meaning “of a dark red color”. This derivation may have originated from pomum granatum, describing the color of pomegranate pulp, or from granum, referring to red dye, cochineal. Pomegranates were colloquially called wine apples in Ireland.

The pomegranate is a shrub or small tree growing 5 to 10 m (16 to 33 ft) high, with multiple spiny branches. It is long-lived, with some specimens in France surviving for 200 years. leaves glossy, The flowers are bright red, some fruitless varieties are grown for the flowers alone.

Pomegranates are round, red fruits. They feature a white inner flesh that’s packed with crunchy, juicy edible seeds called arils. They may be best known for the vibrantly colored juice they’re often used in, but these unique fruits have a lot more to offer.

Pomegranate juice can be sweet or sour, but most fruits are moderate in taste, with sour notes from the juice. Pomegranate juice has long been a common drink in Europe and the Middle East and is distributed worldwide.^[ Pomegranate juice is also used as a cooking ingredient. In Syria, it is added to intensify the flavor of some dishes, Grenadine syrup, commonly used in cocktails, originally consisted of thickened and sweetened pomegranate juice, but today is typically a syrup made just of sugar and produced natural and artificial flavors, preservatives, and food coloring, or using substitute fruits (such as berries).

Dried pomegranate seeds, found in some natural specialty food markets, still contain some residual water, maintaining a natural sweet and tart flavor. Dried seeds can be used in several culinary applications, such as trail mix or granola bars, or as a topping for salad, yogurt, or ice cream. In Turkey, pomegranate sauce (Turkish: nar ekşisi) is used as a salad dressing, to marinate meat, or simply to drink straight. Pomegranate seeds are also used in salads and sometimes as garnish for desserts. Pomegranate syrup, also called pomegranate molasses, is used in muhammara, a roasted red pepper, walnut, and garlic.
