# Expert Tips:

01 -
  • The lime sugar leaves a zesty sparkle on your tongue and makes each bite feel a little festive.
  • Grapes freeze beautifully, holding onto their juiciness even after hours in the cold.
02 -
  • I once tried coating grapes while they were still damp—every bit of lime sugar just slid off and made a sticky mess. Always dry well first.
  • If you freeze grapes for much longer than two hours, check their texture; they can get icy and tough, so aim for good timing.
03 -
  • For the best texture, freeze grapes in a single layer—crowding makes them stick together.
  • Rubbing the zest into sugar by hand wakes up the flavor; don&pos;t use a spoon.
