About Prosecco Grapes

Prosecco grapes are a fun and fancy twist on a classic snack. The concept is simple: fresh grapes are soaked in prosecco (or any sparkling wine you prefer), then rolled in sugar for a sweet, crunchy coating. This treat has roots in the trend of boozy fruit, a staple of outdoor parties and gatherings. They’ve recently gained popularity on social media as a chic, Instagram-worthy snack.

For me, these grapes are more than just a snack—they’re a nostalgic nod to summer evenings with friends, sitting on the patio with a chilled glass of sparkling wine. Now, I serve them as a unique appetizer or dessert at parties.

How To Make Prosecco Grapes

5. In a container, add the white sugar and toss the grapes in the sugar so they’re coated with the sugar.
