My wife (hathor) makes her own Grenadine syrup (ratio 1.5 pom to 1 simple syrup), and as it is, in fact, pomegranate season here in Umbria now, we made a small batch, and had friends over for cocktails and dinner last night. We made 'Pomeranians': 2 parts Gin (Hendrick's), .5 parts Lime juice, .5 parts St Germaine, .5 parts Grenadine Garnished with a lime peel Very girly-pink in color, but tasty and strong. Give it a shot, and let me know what you think.

In Montefalco, do not miss Spirito Divino, and I agree with I Sette Consoli in Orvieto. Both pricey but well worth it and memorable. San Giorgio in Umbertide is also quite good. If you happen to be travelling through Emilio Romano enroute to Umbria, a stop at Hotel Locando Gambero Rosso in S. Piero in Bagno (just off the Bagno di Romano exit, off the E45) is a must. Also a delightful place to stay for an overnight after a destination dinner. And Bagno di Romano is just down the road, so you can do a morning or afternoon soak in the terme (natural lithium hot springs) and come out with a smile!
