Ingredients
Scale
Ingredients
- 2 cups green grapes (washed and dried)
- 2 tablespoons lime juice (freshly squeezed)
- 2 tablespoons sugar-free or regular lime gelatin powder
- Optional: 1 tablespoon granulated monk fruit sweetener or sugar (for extra sweetness)
Instructions
- Coat the Grapes: Place the grapes in a large bowl and drizzle with freshly squeezed lime juice. Toss well to ensure each grape is evenly coated with the lime juice, which adds flavor and helps the gelatin powder stick.
- Prepare the Gelatin Mixture: In a separate bowl or shallow dish, mix together the lime gelatin powder and monk fruit sweetener or sugar if you choose to add extra sweetness.
- Roll Grapes in Gelatin: Take each lime-coated grape and roll it in the gelatin-sweetener mixture until fully coated. This step gives the grapes their signature sour candy texture and flavor.
- Freeze the Grapes: Arrange the coated grapes in a single layer on a parchment-lined baking sheet to prevent sticking. Place the baking sheet in the freezer and freeze for at least 2 hours or until the grapes are firm and fully frozen.
- Serve and Store: Serve the frozen grapes immediately for a refreshing, sweet-and-sour treat. Store any leftovers in a sealed container in the freezer for up to one week to maintain freshness.
Notes
- Use firm, seedless grapes for the best texture and ease of eating.
- Experiment with different gelatin flavors like cherry or lemon for variety.
- Store leftovers in a sealed container in the freezer for up to 1 week to keep them fresh.
