Concord Grape Juice

1. 1

   Put the grapes in a heavy-bottomed, lidded 5-quart pot and mash them with a potato masher. Cover the pot and bring to a boil over medium heat, then turn heat down slightly and simmer 10 minutes.

2. 2

   Turn heat off and cool to room temperature (this will take a couple hours). Strain the juice through a cheesecloth-lined sieve fitted over a bowl to catch the liquid; gently wring the cheesecloth to extract as much liquid as possible (wear food-safe gloves if possible, as grape juice will stain your hands and take a few days to wear off-and yes, I'm speaking from experience!).

3. 3

   Transfer to glass bottles and store in the fridge; shake before serving.

4. 4

   This will make about 5 to 6 cups.

5. 5

   *Wash the grapes before you de-stem them, but weigh them after.
