Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 teaspoons Unflavored gelatin
- 3 tablespoons Water
- 1 cup Lime soda (e.g., Sprite, 7-Up, or any citrus-flavored soda)
- 0.25 cup Fresh lime juice
- 1 teaspoon Lime zest
- 0.5 cup Sweetened condensed milk
- 1 cup Heavy cream
- 2 tablespoons Powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 5 leaves Fresh mint leaves (optional, for garnish)
- 4 wedges Lime wedges (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
In a small bowl, sprinkle the unflavored gelatin over the water. Let it bloom for 5 minutes until the mixture thickens.
In a small saucepan, gently heat the lime soda over low-medium heat. Do not let it boil, but ensure it is hot enough to dissolve the gelatin.
Add the bloomed gelatin to the heated lime soda and stir until the gelatin is fully dissolved. Remove from heat.
Stir in the fresh lime juice, lime zest, and sweetened condensed milk. Mix well until smooth. Allow the mixture to cool to room temperature.
In a separate mixing bowl, whip the heavy cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until it forms soft peaks.
Gradually fold the cooled lime soda mixture into the whipped cream, being careful not to deflate the air. Continue folding until the mixture is fully combined and smooth.
Pour the pudding mixture evenly into serving glasses or ramekins. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or until set.
Before serving, garnish each pudding with a mint leaf and a lime wedge, if desired. Serve chilled and enjoy!
