Ingredients
Scale
- 3 cups grapes, rinsed with stems removed
- 1 cup champagne
- 3 tablespoons white granulated sugar
Instructions
- Place grapes in a medium-sized bowl. Pour champagne over the top. Cover and refrigerate overnight or 12 hours.
- Remove from refrigerator and, using a strainer, drain grapes.
- Add sugar to a small bowl. Working with one handful at a time, toss grapes in sugar to coat. Jiggle to remove excess sugar and transfer to a bowl, platter, or baking sheet. Repeat.
- Freeze 2 hours, refrigerate, or serve at room temperature.
Notes
- Select grapes that are firm, but have a little give so they soak up the champagne.
- Do not pat grapes dry; moisture helps sugar adhere.
- For easy sugar coating, use a powdered sugar spoon or small strainer to shake grapes gently.
- Substitute champagne with Prosecco, sparkling Moscato, sparkling grape juice, apple juice, apple cider, or 7-Up.
- Alternative fruits: strawberries, blackberries, raspberries.
- Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days or freeze up to 1 month.
