Instructions

Wash the grapes thoroughly, removing the stems, and then pat them completely dry (this helps the coating stick!).
In a small bowl, combine 1/4 cup of the monk fruit sweetener, 1/2 teaspoon of ascorbic acid, and one of the superfood powders. Adjust the ratio to your preferred sourness (add 1 teaspoon of ascorbic acid if you prefer a more sour taste).
Squeeze the lime juice over the grapes and gently toss to coat each grape with the lime juice.
Line a baking sheet (that will fit into your freezer) with parchment paper. Working with a few grapes at a time, roll 1 cup of the grapes in the first colored coating, covering each grape completely. Place the coated grapes on a parchment-lined baking sheet, spaced far enough apart as to where they’re not touching each other. Once you’re done with that color, repeat the process using another color. Combine another 1/4 cup of the monk fruit sweetener with another 1/2 teaspoon of ascorbic acid and a different colored powder this time. Roll the second cup of grapes in this color. Repeat for the remaining 2 colors.
Once all grapes are coated, freeze them for 2-3 hours to set the coating. Serve cold for the best sour candy experience! Keep them stored in an airtight container in the freezer.
