Sugared Prosecco Grapes
Equipment
- 1 medium bowl
- 1 Zippered bag (optional)
- 1 Airtight container
Ingredients
- 3 cups green grapes firm and seedless -- You can use red grapes if you prefer, or a mix of both!
- 1 ½ cups Prosecco sparkling wine or Champagne or chardonnay wine. Please, neither use a cheap one nor a too expensive one in this recipe.
- 3 tablespoons granulated sugar NOT caster sugar or another fine sugar
Instructions
- Gently pull each grape from the stem. Then, transfer them to a colander and rinse them under cold running water.
- Place the grapes and the Prosecco or Champagne into a medium bowl that is deep enough for the liquid to cover the grapes. Soak the grapes, covered, in the fridge for at least 12 hours so they absorb flavor!
- Next, drain the grapes. However, don’t let them dry completely! Place the granulated sugar in a large bowl or plastic bag and toss the grapes until the grapes are fully covered with sugar.
- Transfer them to an airtight container and freeze them for two hours.
Recipe Notes
- In the fridge: They keep well chilled in an airtight container for up to 4 days.
- In the freezer: Spread them out onto a large baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Freeze them and then transfer them to an airtight container lined with parchment paper at the bottom. If your container is not large enough to keep them in one single layer, top the first layer with parchment paper and distribute the remaining frozen Prosecco grapes on top. Store them frozen for up to 1 month and serve them frozen.
