Grape Tarragon Spritzer recipe

This flavorful drink is perfect for a fall garden party. The idea for it came about after I used frozen grapes from our freezer to cool down some sparkling water since we didn’t have any ice. The anise-like flavor of tarragon syrup goes well with sweet, refreshing grape juice. Topping off the concentrate with sparkling water and adding frozen grapes makes it a modern, fun treat. —Bryant Terry
