- 500 g Seedless red grapes
- 250 ml Heavy cream
- 3 tbsp Kirsch (cherry brandy)
- 2 tbsp Powdered sugar
- 1 tsp Vanilla extract
- 30 g Almond slivers (optional, for garnish)

Instructions
1. Rinse the grapes thoroughly under cold running water and pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel. Remove them from the stems if necessary.
2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the heavy cream, powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and Kirsch.
3. Using a hand mixer or whisk, beat the mixture until soft peaks form. Avoid over-whipping to prevent the cream from becoming too stiff.

5. Divide the grape and cream mixture evenly into serving bowls or glasses.
6. If desired, garnish with almond slivers for a crunchy texture and mint leaves for a touch of freshness.
