sour patch kids grapes

You can always rely on TikTok to serve up tasty food trends that put a twist on your favorite treats, but one of the latest viral food hacks is truly next-level. TikTok users have been making homemade alternative of Sour Patch Kids that uses fruit. With just three ingredients, you can enjoy a snack that mimics the candy's blend of sour/sweet goodness.



You really can use pretty much anything you’ve got on hand for this trick. TikTok user @candicebyrd’s sour patch grapes recipe included red grapes sprinkled with Great Value Lemonade Drink Mix (Buy It, $9, amazon.com) and frozen for an hour. Other users have experimented with using Jello powder in grape or cherry as their powdery coating, some noting that sugar-free Jello works if you’re interested in some sweetness but limit your sugar intake. For an equally sugar-conscious treat, sweeteners such as BetterBody Foods Monk Fruit Zero Calorie Sweetener (Buy It, $9, target.com) or Truvia Cane Sugar Blend (Buy It, $6, target.com) would do the trick just as well.

If your local grocery store has cotton candy grapes, you can use them to amp up the sweetness create a snack that resembles your favorite carnival treat, a la TikTok user @vancouverfoodie. You could even make them a happy hour-inspired treat by soaking the grapes in vodka first. The possibilities are endless, and this sour candy alternative makes for a great way to enjoy a sweet treat while sneaking in some fiber. (Want more?
