Can I use purple grape juice as a substitute for red wine in cooking?

How should I store shelf-stable purple grape juice?

Does shelf-stable grape juice contain added sugar?
While many brands offer '100% juice' with no added sugar, some shelf-stable varieties may contain added sweeteners or corn syrup. Always check the ingredient label to ensure you are getting pure fruit juice.
How do I know if the juice has gone bad?
Signs of spoilage include a sour or fermented smell, a change in color, or the presence of mold around the cap. If the container appears bloated or the juice tastes unusually fizzy, it should be discarded.
Can I freeze purple grape juice?
Yes, you can freeze grape juice to extend its shelf life or to make homemade popsicles. If freezing in the original container, ensure there is extra headspace as the liquid will expand when frozen.
