Ingredients

• 2 cups seedless red grapes
• 2 tablespoons honey
• 1 cup water
• 2 cups sparkling water
• Fresh mint leaves for garnish
• Ice cubes

Instructions

1. Start by washing the grapes thoroughly under cold running water. Pat them dry with a clean towel.
2. In a blender, combine the grapes and water. Blend until you get a smooth mixture. The burst of tangy, ripe grape aroma will tantalize your senses.
3. Strain the blended mixture through a fine mesh sieve into a pitcher, pressing lightly with a spoon to extract all the juice. Discard the grape pulp.
4. Add honey to the strained juice. Stir until the honey is completely dissolved, imparting its golden sweetness to the mixture.
5. Fill four glasses with ice cubes, then pour the grape-honey mixture equally into each glass, filling them halfway.
6. Top off each glass with sparkling water, giving it a gentle stir. Relish in the effervescent fizz that dances on the surface.
7. Garnish each glass with a sprig of fresh mint. The final drink is not only refreshing to the taste but visually pleasing, with sparkling bubbles and vivid mint touches.

Helpful Tips and Variations

• If honey isn’t your preference, agave syrup or maple syrup can be excellent substitutes, offering their unique flavor profiles.
• For a chilled delight, be sure to serve the Grape Honey Infusion in frosted glasses straight from the freezer.
• This drink can easily be scaled up for a larger gathering. Simply increase the quantities proportionally to serve more guests at your next family get-together or celebration.

Storage and Substitutions

Leftover grape juice base can be refrigerated for up to 2 days in an airtight container. If sparkling water isn’t available, you can use plain cold water, though the fizz of the sparkling water adds a delightful touch.

Pairings and Complements

This Grape Honey Infusion pairs wonderfully with light snacks such as cheese platters, fruit salads, or even plain unsalted nuts. For a sweet match, try it with vanilla cookies or a soft sponge cake.
