About This Recipe
"I got this from a friend who is following the Feingold diet. We are trying to cut out artificial flavoring and coloring. This lets my kids eat jello, one of their favorites, without the added coloring. Cook time is refrigeration time."

- 2 cups 100% fruit juice

- Soften gelatine in 1/2 cup of the juice.

- Remove from heat and add softened gelatine and sugar, stirring until completely dissolved.
- Add fresh fruit, if using and pour into mold and refrigerate until firm, about 3 hours.

"Made my own "juice" (limeade?) by mixing 3/4 cup of lime juice from our tree with 1 and 1/4 cup water. I added 1/2 cup sugar and it made a more tart, but lightly sweet lime jello, with the most incredible flavor. I could see all kinds of possibilities for this recipe. Make sure you love the flavor of the juice you use, since that is the entire flavor of your final product."

"This is great! I used Tree Top Berry Apple juice and my kids love it! I feel SO much better about giving them 100% fruit juice and honey, not a bunch of chemicals, food coloring and sugar!! Thanks for the recipe!"
