From Vineyard to Kitchen: How We Turned Wine Grapes Into Juice - Episode 38
Description
What happens when you’ve got a bucket of wine grapes and no plan? In this episode of Fostering Blooms, Shannon and Caitlyn dive into a spontaneous kitchen adventure — plucking grapes, simmering them on the stove, and making homemade grape juice straight from the vineyard.
From food mills to cheesecloth mishaps (and even a few runaway spiders), you’ll hear every step of this messy, funny, and surprisingly successful experiment. We share exactly how much juice came from just 1.7 pounds of grapes, what worked, and what we’d do differently next time.
And while this episode focuses on making grape juice, the story doesn’t stop there — the leftover pulp inspired us to try jelly the very next day. (Spoiler: it turned out delicious, and we’ll share more about it in a future episode!)
If you’ve ever wondered how to make grape juice from wine grapes, or you just love real-life garden-to-kitchen stories, this one will inspire you to grab your harvest, get messy, and have fun.
