- Here’s what you’ll need for this Grape Jello recipe:
- - 1 lb fresh grapes red or green for a nice visual mix
- - 1 box raspberry jello
- - 1 box lemon jello
- - 1 box orange jello
- - 1 box lime jello
- - 1 box grape jello
- - 1 box berry blue jello
- - 1/2 cup coconut water adds a touch of tropical flavor
- - 1/2 cup water to dip the grapes
- Don’t be afraid to play around with flavors! You can easily switch up the jello types and the addition of coconut water not only enhances the flavor but keeps this treat refreshing.
Step 1: Prepare the Grapes
First, grab your grapes! Separate the grapes from their stems and rinse them well in a colander. This step ensures they're clean, which is essential. Nobody wants a gritty grape pop, right? Let those grapes drain fully as you set them aside.
Step 2: Set Up Your Jello Stations
Next, you’ll want to get your jello flavors ready. Pour each jello powder into small bowls or onto paper plates. You'll have six vibrant colors to work with, which will look stunning once complete. Now, in a separate small dish, mix 1/2 cup of coconut water with 1/2 cup of water. This will be your dipping solution.
Step 4: Arrange the Grapes
- Use Ripe Grapes: Choose grapes that are plump and juicy for the best flavor.
- Experiment with Flavors: Feel free to add any other jello flavors you enjoy; the sky's the limit!
- Kid-Friendly Fun: Involve kids in the process by letting them decorate their own grapes.
- Vary the Dipping Liquid: Try using sprite or flavored sparkling water with your jello for a fizzy twist.
- Watch the Freezing Time: If left too long in the freezer, the grapes may become icy and lose their tasty texture.
