Fresh Grape Soda
http://www.eatingwell.com/recipes/fresh_grape_soda.html
From EatingWell: July/August 2009Make your own grape juice by pureeing and straining fresh grapes for this sweet and tangy sparkling drink. If you have very sweet grapes, you might not need the full amount of honey. Taste as you go. For a special treat, freeze extra whole grapes ahead of time and float them in the drink along with the ice cubes.
