Well, that was interesting! I chose this recipe because I had a partial bottle of grape juice in the fridge and didn't know what to do with it. I did like the drink - the orange water really changes it up, and my only complaint is that it was too sweet. I used honey, but only a touch because grape juice is already way sweet. If I do have this again, I'll probably try to lighten it up a little bit with some soda water to tone it down. Thanks for posting a quite unusual recipe! Made for ZWT9.

YUM! The honey had a hard time blending in so I was thinking (uhoh!) that....you could heat some of the juice, add honey & stir until dissolved. Add the cinnamon stick to that & let it steep a bit before adding the whole but back to the rest of the juice & adding the orange flower water. But, I don't think the additional sweetener is really needed. I accidentally added way more ground cinnamon which turned out great & the recommended amount of orange flower water I could barely detect. (because of too much cinnamon?) so I added more. YUMMM. I sipped & sipped...finished the whole quart in a day. ;) Made for ZWT9, Mike & the Appliance Killers.

I used home-made grape juice sweetened with Splenda when I canned it and added NO additional sweeteners based on other reviews. This was so good! I ordered the Orange Blossom juice a couple weeks ago and it didn't come in time for the ZWT9 Moroccan leg of the event, but now I was able to try it for ZWT9 Family Picks!
