Description
Frozen Sour Candy Grapes offer a delightful twist on classic summer snacking. Cold, tangy, and coated with zesty powder, these grapes provide a refreshing treat that cools and delights with minimal effort.
Ingredients
Scale
- 4 cups (960 ml) green grapes, washed and dried
- 3–4 tbsps (45–60 ml) organic cane sugar
- 2 limes, juiced
Instructions
- Fruit Preparation: Meticulously rinse grapes under cool running water, removing all stems and ensuring complete cleanliness and dryness.
- Citrus Infusion: Transfer grapes to a spacious mixing bowl, drizzle with lime juice, and gently toss to coat each grape in a zesty citrus layer.
- Sugar Transformation: Create a sugar coating station, delicately roll each grape through organic cane sugar, ensuring a gossamer-thin crystalline exterior covers the fruit.
- Freezing Process: Arrange sugar-coated grapes on a parchment-lined tray, maintaining space between each piece to prevent sticking, then transfer to the freezer for approximately two hours.
- Storage and Serving: Once fully frozen, relocate the frosty morsels to an airtight container for preservation, ready to be enjoyed as a refreshing, tangy-sweet treat whenever desired.
Notes
- Rinse Thoroughly: Remove all stems and ensure grapes are completely clean and dry to prevent water diluting the sugar coating.
- Coat Evenly: Use gentle tumbling technique to guarantee each grape receives uniform lime juice and sugar coverage.
- Freeze Strategically: Space grapes individually on parchment paper to prevent sticking and ensure perfect individual frozen treats.
- Storage Tip: Transfer frozen grapes to airtight container within two hours of freezing to maintain optimal texture and prevent freezer burn.
