Ingredients
  

  • 3 cups unsweetened fruit juice
  • 4 packets unflavored gelati
  • 2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup (optional)
  • 1 cup boiling water
  • 1/2 cup cold water

Method
 

  1. Bloom the gelatin by pouring cold water into a large mixing bowl, then sprinkle the gelatin over the surface and let it sit for about five minutes.
  2. Carefully pour boiling water into the bowl and whisk gently for at least two minutes until all gelatin is dissolved.
  3. If using, stir in honey or maple syrup while the mixture is still hot.
  4. Pour in the fruit juice at room temperature and stir well to combine.
  5. Pour the mixture into a 9x13 inch glass dish and skim off any air bubbles.
  6. Chill in the refrigerator for at least three to four hours or overnight for the best texture.
  7. Once set, cut into squares or diamonds and serve.

Notes

For best results, ensure all gelatin is bloomed properly. Use high-quality fruit juices without added enzymes. Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to five to seven days.
