01 -

It turns a simple bag of grapes into something that feels like a special occasion treat
The natural sweetness means you control the sugar, unlike store bought juices
It comes together in literally ten minutes but looks gorgeous on any table

02 -

Blending grapes releases their natural pectin which makes the drink slightly thicker than water and absolutely silky
A really thorough straining makes all the difference between something elegant and something that feels gritty

03 -

Make sure your blender is completely clean because any residue will affect the delicate grape flavor
If the drink separates in the refrigerator just give it a quick stir and it will be perfect again
