Recipe View Chill and Serve: For the best flavor, cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the flavors to meld. Serve chilled. (Time: 2+ hours)

For a richer flavor, consider using brown sugar instead of white sugar.
If you're short on time, you can skip the pecan toasting, but toasting really enhances the flavor.
Feel free to experiment with different types of grapes, such as green grapes or a mix of both.
A sprinkle of cinnamon or nutmeg adds a warm, comforting touch.
For a more decadent version, top with a sprinkle of brown sugar just before serving.
