HOT TIPS TO STAY COOL!
FROZEN GRAPES: A NATURALLY SWEET SUMMER TREAT
These frozen bites always stay icy, but not frozen solid. They must be eaten as soon as they are removed from the freezer before they thaw completely.
1. Wash and dry green or red grapes.
2. Place in sealable plastic bag.
3. Keep in freezer for 2 hours or until frozen.
4. Fill a bowl with several ice cubes and place the bag in the bowl to keep cool while you enjoy!
Have a wonderful summer! — Curt Hendrix
