Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 1 cup water
  • 1 cup champagne
  • red grapes (for garnish)

Method

  • Heat sugar, the water, and 1/2 cup wine in medium noncorrosive saucepan to boiling, stirring to dissolve sugar. Boil 3 minutes without stirring. Pour into small bowl and let cool to room temperature. Refrigerate until cold, about 3 hours. (Tip: To cool the sugar syrup mixture quickly, place bowl in larger bowl of ice and stir occasionally. It should be cold in about 15 minutes.).
  • Stir remaining wine into sugar syrup, pour into 8" cake pan, and freeze overnight.
  • The next day, process wine ice in food processor or blender until smooth. Return to baking pan and freeze until firm, 2-3 hours, stirring once halfway through. Serve in wineglasses, garnished with grapes.
