Preparation
  1. Rinse your grapes thoroughly to remove any dust or residues.
  2. Combine sugar and your sour ingredient in a bowl. Start with one cup of sugar and 1 to 2 tablespoons of citric acid or sour powder.
  3. In a separate bowl, lightly rinse the grapes with water to help the sugar mixture adhere better.
  4. Roll the grapes in the sugar mixture, coating them evenly. Optionally, add colorful sprinkles for a festive touch.
  5. Place the coated grapes on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and let them chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before serving.

Notes

For best results, use firm and fresh grapes. Adjust the sour-to-sweet ratio according to your taste preference. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to three days.
