My husband jokes that I am a sucker for the term limited edition.

This is doubly true with seasonal fruit.

Thats how I discovered Moon Drop grapes.

The minute I popped one in my mouth, I was wowed by its intense taste and crisp texture.

Flavor is their biggest selling point.

They boast an intense grape-jelly taste without the cloying sweetness of a jar of Smucker’s.

This is because the tannins in the skin lend astringent tartness to balance out the sweetness.

Like the traditional jelly grape, Concords, Moon Drops are seedless.

Nevertheless, I usually just eat Moon Drops out of hand.

Avoid any grapes that look wilted or deflated or are attached to a brittle, brown stem.

Moon Drop grapes hold up well in the fridge, lasting one to two weeks if stored properly.
