Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 cups Fruit juice (your choice, such as orange, apple, or grape)
- 4 packets (1 oz total) Unflavored gelatin
- 2 tablespoons Honey or sugar (optional, for added sweetness)
Instructions
Pour 2 cups of fruit juice into a medium-sized mixing bowl.
Sprinkle the unflavored gelatin evenly over the juice and let sit for 2-3 minutes to allow the gelatin to bloom.
In a small saucepan, heat the remaining 2 cups of fruit juice over medium heat until steaming, but not boiling.
Slowly pour the hot juice into the mixing bowl with the bloomed gelatin, stirring constantly, until all the gelatin is completely dissolved.
If desired, stir in honey or sugar to sweeten, tasting as you go.
Carefully pour the mixture into a 9x13-inch glass or metal baking dish, smoothing out any bubbles on the surface.
Refrigerate for at least 2-3 hours, or until completely set.
Once set, use a knife to cut the gelatin into small squares or shapes of your choice.
Store the Fruit Juice Knox Blox in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.
