Concord Grape Tapioca Pudding

Tapioca pudding is an old-fashioned fuddy-duddy of a dessert. But substitute the rich, distinctive flavor of Concord grape juice for milk in real homemade pudding, and the result is a neighborly Finger Lakes version of the classic. You’ll never look at tapioca the same way again. Eileen Farnum prepares this dish for visitors to Barrington Cellars during Keuka Wine Trail holiday events.

    serves 2 to 4

Ingredients

1/4 cup granulated tapioca
1/4 cup sugar
2 1/2 cups Buzzard Crest Vineyards Grape Juice
Whipped cream (optional)

Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Combine all of the ingredients in a large saucepan and mix well. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture comes to a boil, about 15 minutes.
