Description

Prosecco Grapes are a refreshing and elegant frozen treat made by marinating crunchy green grapes in prosecco or champagne, then coating them in sugar. This simple recipe transforms ordinary grapes into a bubbly, sweet delight perfect for parties or casual snacking.

Ingredients

Scale

Ingredients

  • 3-4 cups green grapes (crunchy grapes work best)
  • 1 bottle of champagne or prosecco (does not need to be expensive)
  • 1 cup cane sugar

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Grapes: Wash the grapes thoroughly and remove each grape from the stem to ensure they are clean and ready for marinating.
  2. Pierce the Grapes: Using a toothpick, poke several holes in each grape. This allows the prosecco to penetrate and infuse the grape flesh more effectively.
  3. Marinate Grapes: Place the pierced grapes in a large bowl and pour the bottle of prosecco or champagne over them. Cover the bowl and refrigerate for a minimum of 8 hours, preferably overnight, allowing the grapes to absorb the flavors.
  4. Drain Prosecco: After marination, drain the prosecco from the grapes, saving it for a cocktail or other use if desired.
  5. Coat with Sugar: While the grapes are still wet, toss them in cane sugar so the sugar adheres well to their surface.
  6. Freeze or Chill: Spread the sugar-coated grapes in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Place them in the freezer to create a frozen treat or refrigerate until ready to serve.
  7. Serve: Enjoy the prosecco grapes chilled or frozen, either as a refreshing snack or an elegant accompaniment to cocktails.

Notes

  • Use crunchy grapes for the best texture and flavor; avoid grapes that appear sad or soggy.
  • Poking holes in the grapes allows the prosecco to seep in and be better absorbed.
  • Toss grapes in sugar while they are still wet so the sugar sticks properly.
  • You can freeze the grapes and bring them to room temperature before serving if preferred.
  • Grapes can marinate for up to 24 hours in advance for enhanced flavor absorption.
