Grape Juice

My mom makes grape juice every year in the fall.  Her grape juice is the best I've ever tasted.  She grows her own grapes, picks them, steams them, and bottles them.  And then we all drink the delicious juice for the rest of the year.  The grape juice is so wonderful you can drink it straight from the bottles.  No sugar or water is needed at all.  Pure grape juice! The absolute best!!

Joe picked us a few buckets full of grapes.  

And we then spent many hours removing all of the stems and putting the grapes into the steamer.

After the juices was steamed out of those grapes we put it into bottles and sealed them up.

And finally we enjoyed some of the juice!

We bottled about 36 quarts this year.  Lots of sticky messes but a lot of great juice to come this year!!
