Ingredients

• 2 kg White Seedless Grapes (washed, kept whole for soaking)

3. Rinse the grapes thoroughly

   Drain the soak water, discard it, and rinse the grapes under fresh running water. Repeat rinsing 2‑3 times until the water runs clear.

   Time: PT10M

4. Boil grapes with sugar and salt

   Transfer the cleaned grapes to a pot, add 2.5 L fresh water, 100 g sugar and ½ tsp salt. Bring to a rapid boil on high flame.

   Time: PT5M

   Temperature: High flame

5. Cool the boiled mixture

   After 5 minutes of boiling, remove the pot from heat and let the mixture cool completely at room temperature.

   Time: PT30M

6. Hand‑crush the grapes

   Wash your hands well, then squeeze and mash the cooled grapes in the pot until a smooth pulp forms.

   Time: PT5M

7. Strain the juice

   Pour the mashed grapes through a fine mesh sieve into a clean container, using a spoon to press out as much liquid as possible.

   Time: PT5M

8. Bottle and refrigerate

   Transfer the clear juice into glass bottles, seal tightly, and store in the refrigerator.

   Time: PT5M

   Temperature: 4°C

9. Optional: Make grape ice cubes
