Champagne Candied Grapes

"These Champagne Candied Grapes are a perfect snack any time of the year- a cool snack for summer, a pretty snack for the holidays, and a great boozy treat for New Year’s. The sour flavor of the grapes makes a perfect balance with their sugary exterior. Did you know that in Spain and many Latin American countries, it’s tradition to eat twelve grapes when counting down to midnight on New Year’s? There is a belief that eating twelve grapes (all within one minute!) will bring luck for each of the twelve months of the coming year. This comes from late 19th century Spain when the Alicante province had a surplus of grapes and came up with a new tradition to market them. "
