Equipment
- 1 Medium Sauce Pan
- 1 9x13 Dish
Ingredients
- 4 cups Fruit Juice
- 8 Tbsp Beef Gelatin
- 2-4 Tbsp Honey Adjust according to preferred sweetness.
Instructions
- Add the cold fruit juice to a medium saucepan but DO NOT turn on the stove top yet. Sprinkle the gelatin over top of the fruit juice and stir gently until combined. Let this mixture sit until it become a more solid texture meaning the gelatin has fully bloomed (see picture below).
- Once the gelatin has fully bloomed turn on the stove top to a low-medium heat and heat the mixture until just before boiling stirring frequently to ensure it doesn't burn. It should just be starting to bubble and the mixture will have turned back to a full liquid.
- When the mixture is just starting to bubble, turn off the burner and remove it completely from the heat. Let it rest for 2-5 minutes to allow it to cool a little bit. It should still be a liquid once cooled. Don't leave it too long or it will start to solidify.
- Once cooled slightly but still a liquid, stir in the honey.
- Pour into a 9x13 pan or into silicone molds and put in fridge for 2-4 hours or until fully solidified. Once they have solidified, cut them into squares or pop them out of the silicone mold and store them in an airtight container. They will keep for 1 week in the fridge.
