Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups cranberry juice
- 2 packets unflavored gelatin
- 3 tablespoons honey or sugar
- 1 cup water
- 1 cup fresh cranberries or raspberries
- 1 teaspoon orange zest
- 5 leaves mint leaves (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Pour 1/2 cup of cranberry juice into a medium-sized bowl and sprinkle the unflavored gelatin over the surface. Let the gelatin bloom for 5 minutes until it fully absorbs the liquid.
In a small saucepan, combine the remaining 1.5 cups of cranberry juice, honey or sugar, and water. Heat over medium heat until the mixture is warm but not boiling, stirring occasionally to dissolve the sweetener.
Slowly pour the warm juice mixture into the bloomed gelatin while whisking continuously to ensure the gelatin dissolves completely.
Add the orange zest to the gelatin mixture and mix well to incorporate the citrus flavor.
Pour the mixture evenly into small serving glasses, leaving space at the top for the fresh fruit.
Drop a few fresh cranberries or raspberries into each glass. The berries may float or sink, adding texture and a pop of color to the dessert.
Cover the glasses with plastic wrap and chill in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours, or until the cranberry mixture is completely set and wobbly.
Before serving, garnish with a sprig of mint for a fresh finish.
