Grape Juice

Start with clean, fresh picked grapes.
Fill the top section of your Back to Basics Nutri Steamer with clean grape clusters, you don't need to stem them. Fill the bottom section with water. Clamp the tube closed. Place entire 3 section pot onto stove. Bring to a boil and boil for about one hour. The grape juice will collect in the center section.
Push on clamp to release the juice from the hose and begin to fill your jars. Be careful, the juice coming out is very HOT!
Sweeten with desired sweetener. We like Agave Nectar.

Process in a hot water bath for 5 minutes for quart jars and 10 minutes for 1/2 gallon jars.
Let sit to cool. Store in a cool dark place.
The juice is fairly concentrated, add water to taste when serving.

What if we dont have that NutriSteamer? I have clean grapes, so I just put water on them and boil and put that juice through a strainer? All of your GOODS, look great!
