Canned Grape Juice
Put freshly picked concord/backyard purple grapes into a sink full of water. Wash grapes. Remove grapes from stems and put grapes into prepared quart jars. Fill jars up a little more than 1/3 the way full of grapes.
Add 1/4 heaping cup of white sugar to each jar.
Fill the rest of the jar up with hot/boiling water.
Put canning lids and rings on and shake jar to dissolve sugar.
Steam Can the jars for 20 mins (time starts once the steam is steady coming out of the canner).
Jars need to sit at least 1 month to really infuse the grape flavor. We like to wait closer to 3 months.
Our favorite way to drink this is by making up our own fresh lime rickey drinks. Strain the jars of grapes into a pitcher, add a bottle of sprite and fresh limes!
