Title: Sweet-Hot Holiday Grapes
Categories: Spice Fruit
Yield: 1 Servings

1 3/4	c	Red flame grapes
1 3/4	c	Green seedless grapes
1	c	Sugar
2/3	c	Cider vinegar
1	c	Water
4	lg	Jalapenos

Remove from their stems 1 3/4 Cups each red flame and green seedless grapes; rinse and place in medium bowl. (Will be approx. 1 1/2 pounds of grapes.)

Simmer in medium saucepan over low heat for 10 minutes: 1 Cup sugar, 2/3 Cup cider vinegar, 1 Cup water and 4 large jalapenos that have been seeded and quartered.

Pour mixture over grapes. (Add a little water if necessary so grapes are completely covered.) Cover with plastic wrap and marinate at room temperature overnight. Serve cold or at room temperature. Keeps refrigerated 5-6 days. I noticed that the green grapes are slightly discolored at the end b/c of the vinegar, but it's not bad. Might arrange so you don't see it, or just use red ones...
