A derivative of koulourakia and a very popular snack during grape harvest season, the word moustokouloura is derived from moustos (young wine) and kouloura (rounded twists). These grape-must cookies are made with petimezi, which is grape syrup taken from the juice of freshly pressed grapes before it’s made into wine. If you can’t find it at a local Greek market or bakery, you can easily make a comparable version with 100%
