Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

Pink Gelatin Base
  • 1 tablespoon unflavored gelatin powder
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened cranberry juice or pomegranate juice
  • 1/2 cup hot water or hot herbal tea
Optional Flavor + Balance
  • 1 teaspoon lemon juice
  • 1 pinch pink salt

Method
 

  1. Add the gelatin to 2 tablespoons of cool water or cool juice. Stir and let it sit for about 5 minutes until thickened. This is called blooming, and it helps prevent lumps.
  2. Heat the water in a small pan and bring it to a boil. Turn off the heat and stir in the cranberry or pomegranate juice.
  3. Add the bloomed gelatin to the hot mixture and whisk until fully dissolved and smooth.
  4. If you want a warm pink gelatin drink, stir in the lemon juice if using and sip it before it sets.
  5. If you prefer it chilled, pour the mixture into a small container and refrigerate for about 2 hours until firm. Eat with a spoon or cut into cubes.

Notes

This pink gelatin is simple, a little nostalgic, and kind of fun to make. It’s not magic. It’s not complicated.
It’s just one of those small kitchen experiments that reminds you that food doesn’t have to be fancy to be interesting.
