How to Make Wine Marinated Grapes

  1. Gently separate the bunch of grapes into small clusters.
  2. In a large bowl, combine 1 cup of dry white wine (such as Sauvignon Blanc or Pinot Grigio) and 1/4 cup granulated sugar. Stir until the sugar is completely dissolved.
  3. Add 1 pound of red or green seedless grapes and the zest of 1 lemon to the bowl. Gently toss to ensure all the grapes are coated in the marinade.
  4. Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 3 hours, or up to 24 hours for maximum flavor infusion.
  5. Transfer the marinated grapes to a serving platter or shallow bowl. Sprinkle 1 tablespoon of granulated sugar (or 1 tablespoon of finely chopped fresh rosemary) over the top.
  6. Serve chilled. Enjoy the leftover marinade by adding it to chilled club soda for a sophisticated cocktail!
