2.
Pour the lemon juice into a pan and reduce to about 3/4 of its volume. Pour the grape juice into a shallow metal bowl. Add the reduced lemon juice and sparkling wine, stirring well. Sweeten with a pinch of stevia if desired; use sparingly so it does not become too sweet. Cover the metal bowl with plastic wrap and place in the freezer for about 3 hours.
