In a large sauté pan over medium heat, combine the grapes, 2 Tbsp rum, 2 Tbsp honey, and rosemary sprigs. Cook, stirring occasionally, for about 6 to 8 minutes, or until the grapes begin to burst.

Remove from heat and take out the rosemary sprigs, removing the leaves from the stems. Combine rosemary leaves, caramelized grapes, 2 Tbsp rum, 2 Tbsp honey, red wine vinegar, Dijon mustard, and olive oil in a food processor. Process until smooth. Season to taste with salt and pepper.

Pairs well drizzled over a green salad, as well as a dressing for potato salad with fresh herbs and chives.
