2.     Add 3 kernels to the hot oil, return the lid, and begin swirling the pot

3.     Once 2 of the 3 kernels have popped, add the remaining 1/4 cup. Close the lid and swirl again

4.     In the next 30-45 seconds add the pre-measured sugar, Kim Crawford Sauvignon Blanc and lemon zest. Quickly close the lid and vigorously swirl the pot to distribute evenly

5.     Swirl once every thirty seconds before popping begins and continuously swirl the pot once the kernels begin to pop

6.     Turn the heat off once popping has slowed to 3 seconds between pops
