Ingredients
Scale
- 3 packets unflavored gelatin powder (3 tablespoons)
- 1 1/2 cups organic cranberry juice, 100% juice with no added sugar
- 1 cup fresh pomegranate juice
- 1 1/2 cups fresh raspberries
- 1 1/2 cups fresh strawberries, diced into 1/2-inch pieces
- 1 1/2 cups sparkling water or club soda, divided
- 2 to 3 tablespoons raw honey or monk fruit sweetener
- 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
- 6 to 8 fresh mint leaves, optional garnish
Instructions
- Pour the cranberry juice and pomegranate juice into a medium saucepan over medium-high heat.
- Warm the juices until small bubbles form around the edges, without allowing the mixture to boil.
- Sprinkle the unflavored gelatin powder over 1/2 cup of cold sparkling water in a separate bowl.
- Let the gelatin bloom for 3 minutes.
- Remove the warm juice mixture from the heat and let it cool for 2 minutes.
- Slowly pour the warm juice into the bloomed gelatin while whisking constantly.
- Whisk for 2 minutes, until the gelatin is completely dissolved and smooth.
- Stir in the fresh lemon juice, raw honey or monk fruit sweetener, and the remaining 1 cup of sparkling water.
- Allow the gelatin mixture to cool to room temperature for 20 to 30 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Gently fold in the fresh raspberries and diced strawberries.
- Pour the mixture evenly into 6 individual serving glasses or a 9-inch square baking dish.
- Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, until completely set.
- Test the gelatin by inserting a small spoon into the edge; it should cut through cleanly without appearing liquid.
- Remove from the refrigerator 15 minutes before serving.
- Garnish with fresh mint leaves and additional berries, if desired.
- Serve chilled.
Notes
Bloom the gelatin in cold liquid before mixing for a smooth texture. Do not boil the juice mixture, and cool it to room temperature before adding berries for even distribution.
