Follow our recipe to make delicious homemade grape syrup, great as a natural sweetener for drinks or as a base for ice cream. The fermentation and the addition of cinnamon or cloves give a special touch to this genuine and flavorful syrup.
Instructions
- Start by thoroughly washing the grapes under running water, then detach the berries from the stem and place them in a large container.
- Gently crush the berries to extract the juice and let the obtained liquid ferment for a week. During this period, stir twice a day with a wooden spoon to aid the fermentation process.
- At the end of the week, filter the must using a clean cloth or piece of fabric, squeezing well to recover all the liquid.
- Pour the must into a steel pot along with the sugar and bring to a boil. Boil for about ten minutes, stirring constantly with the wooden spoon.
- Once the cooking is finished, remove from the heat and let the syrup cool completely before bottling it.
Notes
To add a special touch to your homemade grape syrup, you can add a few whole grapes in the bottle or flavor the syrup with a cinnamon stick or some cloves during the boiling phase.
