I first saw Champagne
Grapes mentioned in a YouTube video and my initial thought was “champagne
grapes??” Well, when I went to Walmart I noticed they had a few packages but
for a hefty price tag …. $4. I love grapes, but I was not paying $4 for one
pound of grapes I had never tried before. So when I went to Trader Joe’s, I was
surprised to see them there as well … for $2 a one pound pack. So I picked them up.
I have to say these are adorable little grapes. They remind
me of the old fashion pictures and commercials where someone is lounging on a
lounge chair, being fanned having grapes held over their head for consumption. There is nothing alcoholic about these grapes
and these grapes aren’t even used to make wine. From what I gather they’re given that name
because they are photographed (alongside a champagne flute) because of their
dainty, perfect cluster size.
They taste like very sweet grapes. They are very small … smaller than a
blueberry. The grapes are rather
fragile, so you have to take your time pulling them off the stem or they will
burst between your fingertips. Plus,
they’re a great, different way of getting your fruit in.
QUESTION:
Have you ever tried champagne grapes or even cotton candy
grapes?
