Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons gelatin powder
  • 1 cup cold water (for blooming gelatin)
  • 2 cups pink lemonade (warmed)
  • 1 cup cold water (to add after sugar)
  • Sugar or sweetener, to taste
  • Fresh fruit (optional, such as sliced strawberries or raspberries)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the gelatin: Sprinkle the gelatin powder evenly over half a cup (1/2 cup) of cold water. Let it sit for about 5 minutes to bloom and achieve a jelly-like consistency.
  2. Heat the liquid: Warm the pink lemonade gently on the stove or in the microwave until hot but not boiling, to ensure the gelatin will dissolve properly.
  3. Combine gelatin and lemonade: Pour the bloomed gelatin mixture into the warm pink lemonade. Stir continuously until the gelatin dissolves completely, forming a smooth liquid.
  4. Add sugar and cool down: Stir in sugar or your preferred sweetener to taste. Then, add the remaining cold water to cool the mixture before refrigerating.
  5. Chill and set: Pour the mixture into a large serving pitcher or individual glasses. Refrigerate for at least 3 to 4 hours, or until the drink is fully set but still drinkable.

Notes

  • Use fresh ingredients such as homemade or freshly squeezed pink lemonade for enhanced flavor.
  • Allow the gelatin to bloom fully in cold water before dissolving to avoid lumps.
  • Avoid boiling the pink lemonade as high heat can break down gelatin and affect the texture.
  • Adjust refrigeration time to achieve your preferred firmness in the drink’s texture.
  • Add fresh fruit or herbs like mint to the set drink to enhance flavor and presentation.
