Ingredients
Scale
- 6 packets unflavored gelatin powder, approximately 42 grams
- 2 cups 100% pure pomegranate juice
- 1 cup unsweetened or minimally sweetened cranberry juice
- 1 1/2 cups filtered water, divided
- 2–3 tablespoons monk fruit sweetener or stevia, to taste
- 1/2 cup fresh pomegranate seeds, optional
- 1/4 cup fresh cranberries or additional pomegranate seeds, optional garnish
Instructions
- Pour 3/4 cup of filtered water into a large glass mixing bowl.
- Sprinkle the unflavored gelatin evenly over the water and let it bloom undisturbed for 5 minutes.
- Heat the remaining 3/4 cup filtered water in a small saucepan over medium heat until steaming, approximately 160-170°F.
- Slowly pour the heated water over the bloomed gelatin while stirring continuously with a silicone spatula.
- Stir for about 2 minutes, until the gelatin is completely dissolved and the mixture is smooth.
- Add the pomegranate juice and cranberry juice to the dissolved gelatin mixture, stirring until evenly combined.
- Stir in 2 tablespoons of monk fruit sweetener or stevia, then taste and add more sweetener if desired.
- Pour half of the gelatin mixture into six serving dishes or one large serving container.
- Distribute the optional pomegranate seeds or cranberries evenly over the gelatin mixture.
- Gently pour the remaining gelatin mixture over the fruit.
- Transfer the serving dishes to the refrigerator.
- Refrigerate for 4 hours, or until the gelatin is completely set and firm yet yielding.
- Garnish with additional fresh pomegranate seeds or cranberries, if desired, and serve chilled.
Notes
Bloom the gelatin for the full 5 minutes and use steaming water rather than boiling water for a smooth, evenly set texture. Use 100% pure fruit juices and add the sweetener gradually so the refreshing fruit flavor remains balanced.
