Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups water, divided
- 2 packets unflavored gelatin (about 14 grams total)
- 1 cup unsweetened fruit juice (cherry, grape, mixed berry, or pomegranate)
- 1 to 2 tablespoons honey or low-calorie sweetener (optional)
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- A pinch of salt
- Optional add-ins: sliced strawberries, blueberries, or mint leaves
Instructions
- Pour 1 cup of cool water into a bowl. Sprinkle the gelatin on top and let it sit for 5 to 10 minutes to bloom.
- Warm the other 1 cup of water in a small pot, adding the fruit juice, ensuring it’s warm but not boiling.
- Turn off the heat and add the bloomed gelatin to the warm liquid, stirring until fully dissolved.
- Taste the mixture to see if you need honey or sweetener before adding lemon juice and the pinch of salt.
- Pour the mixture into a glass dish or silicone molds. Optionally add berries. Refrigerate for at least 3 hours, preferably overnight.
- Slice into cubes or pop out of molds when set. Store in a container in the fridge.
