A simple and delightful way to make fresh grape juice at home.
Place the fresh grapes into sterilized jars, filling them halfway.
Ensure the jars are clean and dry before adding the grapes to maintain freshness.
Add the granulated sugar to each jar, adjusting the amount to your taste preference.
You can use a sugar substitute for a healthier option.
Pour boiling water into the jars, covering the grapes completely.
Pour the water slowly to avoid cracking the jars.
Seal the jars with lids and process them in a water-bath canner for 10 minutes.
Ensure the jars are fully submerged in the water-bath canner for proper sealing.
Remove the jars from the canner and let them cool, covering with a towel to avoid drafts.
Allow the jars to cool completely before storing them.
Let the jars sit for 3 to 4 weeks to allow the flavors to develop.
Store the jars in a cool, dark place during this period.
Strain the juice from the grapes before serving.
Use a fine strainer to ensure a clear juice.
