Ingredients
- Grapes (preferably green or red varieties)
- Sugar
- Water
Instructions
- Clean the grapes. Wash the grapes thoroughly and remove any stems. Let them dry a bit on a clean towel, ready to soak up that beautiful syrup.
- Make the syrup. In a saucepan, combine sugar and water, and bring to a boil. Stir occasionally until the sugar has dissolved completely and the mixture looks glossy.
- Cool the syrup. Once boiled, let the syrup cool slightly before drizzling over the grapes. This is crucial to ensure you don’t cook them!
- Toss the grapes. Gently toss the grapes in the cooled syrup, making sure each one gets a lovely coat. They should glisten like little jewels.
- Chill before serving. Refrigerate for at least an hour before serving to enhance flavors.
Notes
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Grapes may get a bit soggier over time, but will still be delightful.
