Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 packet (3 oz) Flavored gelatin mix (any flavor of choice)
- 1 cup Boiling water
- 1 cup Cold water
- 2 cups Chilled fruit juice (matching the gelatin flavor or a complementary flavor)
- 0.5 cup Optional: Fresh fruit chunks (such as diced strawberries, oranges, or pineapple)
- 1 cup Ice cubes
Instructions
In a mixing bowl, dissolve the flavored gelatin mix in 1 cup of boiling water. Stir thoroughly until fully dissolved (about 2 minutes).
Add 1 cup of cold water to the dissolved gelatin mixture and stir well.
Pour the mixture into a shallow dish or container and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or until completely set.
Once the gelatin has set, use a knife to cut it into small cubes, approximately 1/2 inch in size. Alternatively, use a spoon to break it into irregular chunks for a more rustic texture.
In a large pitcher, combine the chilled fruit juice with the gelatin cubes. Stir gently to mix, ensuring the gelatin chunks are evenly distributed.
If desired, add fresh fruit chunks to enhance the flavor and texture of the drink.
To serve, fill each glass with ice cubes and pour the gelatin drink over the ice. Serve immediately and enjoy!
