Step 1
Wash the grapes thoroughly and pat them dry with a clean towel. Remove any stems.
Step 2
In a medium saucepan over medium heat, combine the sugar, honey, cinnamon stick, star anise, cloves, orange juice, and water.

Lower the heat to medium-low and simmer the grapes for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they are softened but still hold their shape.

Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the vanilla extract and a pinch of salt.
Step 7
Let the spiced grapes cool to room temperature. Discard the cinnamon stick, star anise, and cloves.
