Description
A fun and tasty treat made with grapes and Kool-Aid.
Ingredients
Scale
- 3 lbs Green Grapes (firm)
- 1/2 cup Pre-sweetened Kool-Aid Drink Mix (Option A)
- 2 small packets Unsweetened Kool-Aid (Option B)
- 1/3 cup Granulated Sugar (for Option B)
Instructions
- Pull grapes from the vine and rinse them in a colander with cool water.
- Pat them completely dry with a paper towel. (Crucial: The powder won’t stick to dry grapes, but it turns into ‘mud’ on soaking wet ones. They should be slightly tacky/damp, not dripping).
- Place them in the freezer for only 15–20 minutes (this makes them cold enough for the powder to ‘grab’ without freezing them solid).
- If using unsweetened packets, whisk the powder and the sugar together in a small bowl first to ensure the sweetness is evenly distributed before adding to the bag of grapes.
- Divide the grapes into separate ziplock bags for each Kool-Aid flavor.
- Add Kool-Aid to each bag, seal, and shake to coat the grapes evenly.
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and spread the coated grapes on it.
- Freeze for 24 hours and once frozen, they’re ready to enjoy.
Notes
- Make sure grapes are completely dry before adding the powder for the best coating.
- Feel free to experiment with different Kool-Aid flavors!
