Ingredients
Scale
Ingredients
- 6 oz Kool-Aid mix (choose your favorite flavors)
- 3 lbs Green grapes, washed and dried
Instructions
- Freeze the grapes: Place the green grapes in the freezer for about 1 hour until they are firm but not completely frozen solid. This step helps in easily removing the stems and prepping the grapes for coating.
- Remove stems: While the grapes are still frozen, twist off the stems gently. Freezing makes the stems come off easily without damaging the grapes.
- Rinse the grapes: Put the stemless grapes in a colander and rinse with cool water to remove any excess sugar or residue from freezing.
- Divide grapes by flavor: Separate the grapes into individual ziplock bags according to the number of Kool-Aid flavors you want to use.
- Coat with Kool-Aid: Add the appropriate amount of Kool-Aid powder to each bag of grapes, seal the bags well, then shake vigorously to evenly coat the grapes with the flavored powder.
- Prepare for freezing: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking, then spread out the coated grapes evenly on the sheet.
- Freeze until solid: Place the baking sheet in the freezer for 24 hours to ensure the grapes are fully frozen and the Kool-Aid coating sets into a delightful icy treat.
- Serve and enjoy: Once frozen, serve immediately as a refreshing snack or dessert. Keep any leftovers stored in the freezer in an airtight container to maintain freshness.
Notes
- Use seedless grapes for the best eating experience.
- You can experiment with different Kool-Aid flavors or mixes to create a variety of tastes.
- Make sure grapes are well dried before adding Kool-Aid powder to ensure it sticks properly.
- Consume the frozen grapes within a week for optimal flavor and texture.
