Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Fruits: Wash and peel the fruits as needed. Cut them into small, bite-sized pieces.

  2. Prepare the Gelatin Mixture: In a saucepan, heat 2 cups of water over medium heat. Once the water is warm, sprinkle the unflavored gelatin over it and stir continuously until the gelatin dissolves completely.

  3. Sweeten the Mixture: Add the sugar to the gelatin mixture and stir until the sugar completely dissolves.

  4. Add Fruit Juice: Squeeze a splash of lemon juice into the gelatin mixture for a zesty kick that will complement the sweetness of the fruits. Stir well to combine all the flavors.

  5. Set the Base: Pour the gelatin mixture into a large, clear serving dish. Place the dish in the refrigerator and allow the gelatin to partially set for about 1-2 hours.

  6. Add the Fruits: Once the gelatin has partially set, gently stir in the prepared fruits, distributing them evenly throughout the mixture.

  7. Complete the Setting: Return the dish to the refrigerator and let the gelatin set completely for at least 4-6 hours or overnight.

  8. Serve and Enjoy: When ready to serve, cut the Gelatina De Frutas into squares or scoop it into individual serving bowls. Garnish with a few extra fruit pieces on top for an added pop of color.
