Yes, that's right. Even in Alberta (move over Ontario and B.C.!!), we can grow grapes. Planted three years ago, this year we have a bumper crop!
The grapes are tiny (about the size of blueberries) so they're meant for juice, wine and jelly rather than eating. The juice (first time!) is marvellous - intense, fresh and perfect "as is" (no sugar needed).
Microwave 2 cups of grapes (no stems) in a large, glass measuring cup for 4-5 minutes. Gently press the grapes with a spoon to make sure they've popped. Strain 3 times using Bernardin jelly bags (Safeway, Canadian Tire).
