I'll admit that this project is 100% an experiment and I have no idea how they will turn out. My father has some grape vines that are doing splendid this year, so I picked a large batch and was thinking of ways I might be able to preserve them. I stumbled upon a "Brandy grapes" idea that I thought I would try.

Grapes! |
I added the grapes to Mason Jars and decided to experiment. Some jars I added sugar to, and some jars no sugar. I added mulling spices to a couple jars. And one jar is full of spiced Rum instead of Brandy.

Even if they don't turn out I guess they will look pretty setting on my shelves for a while. According to the internet they will take around three months before they are "done". I think the worst-case scenario is that I filter the solids out and have flavored alcohol.

Vodka Pomegranates! |
While I was experimenting I decided to try some smaller jars of Vodka soaked Pomegranates. I sure hope these turn out well!
