Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 10 ounces Frozen raspberries
- 12 ounces Fresh cranberries
- 3 ounces Raspberry Jello
- 0.75 cups Granulated sugar
- 1 cups Boiling water
- 8 ounces Crushed pineapple in juice
- 1 orange Zest of an orange
Instructions
Rinse the fresh cranberries and pat them dry. Set aside.
In a large saucepan, combine the cranberries, granulated sugar, and 1/2 cup water over medium heat. Cook until the cranberries start to pop, about 5-7 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside to cool slightly.
In a heatproof bowl, dissolve the raspberry Jello in 1 cup of boiling water. Stir until fully dissolved, about 2 minutes.
Add the crushed pineapple (with its juice) to the dissolved Jello mixture and stir well.
Fold the cooked cranberry mixture into the Jello mixture, ensuring the cranberries are evenly distributed.
Stir in the frozen raspberries and grated orange zest, mixing until well combined.
Transfer the mixture into a serving dish or Jello mold. Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or until fully set.
Serve chilled as a side dish or dessert, garnished with additional orange zest or fresh mint, if desired.
