FROZEN GRAPE TIP: Wash and dry the grapes thoroughly then spread them out on a freezer-safe sheet pan or an ice cube tray. Put the pan or tray in the freezer until the grapes are frozen (about an hour). Then you can transfer them to a freezer-safe container or bag. Freezing grapes separately helps stop them from freezing together.
