Sweet & Spicy Pickled Red Seedless Grapes image

Most people don't think about grapes when creating a canned pickle recipe. The pickling liquid for these grapes includes red wine, vinegar, and common pickling spices like coriander, mustard seeds and hot pepper; it also contains warm spices like cinnamon and star anise along with brown sugar. These flavor-packed grapes are unique and delicious on an antipasto, pickle or cheese tray. -Cheryl Perry, Hertford, North Carolina

I was a bit hesitant to try these grapes because I'm not a big fan of spicy food. But I'm so glad I did! They're just the right amount of spicy and the sweetness of the grapes balances it out perfectly.
