Homemade Jello Using UNflavored Beef Gelatin

Ingredients

• 1/4 cup Beef Gelatin Powder (unflavored, 4 tablespoons (≈9 g protein per tablespoon))
• 1 cup Strawberry Lemonade Electrolyte Drink (Zero‑sugar, naturally colored with vegetable juice)
• 1 cup Water (Room‑temperature, used for heating)
• 1 pinch Salt (Optional, to enhance flavor)

Instructions

1. Measure gelatin

   Using the 4‑cup glass measuring cup, scoop 1/4 cup (4 Tbsp) beef gelatin powder and set aside.

   Time: PT2M

2. Heat liquid

   Combine 1 cup water and 1 cup strawberry‑lemonade electrolyte drink in the measuring cup. Heat in the microwave on high for 1‑2 minutes, or until hot but not boiling (just below a rolling boil).

   Time: PT5M

   Temperature: Near boiling

3. Dissolve gelatin

   Gradually sprinkle the gelatin powder into the hot liquid while whisking continuously to avoid lumps. Whisk for about 30 seconds until fully dissolved and the mixture is smooth.

   Time: PT2M

4. Add optional salt

   Stir in a pinch of salt to enhance the strawberry‑lemonade flavor.

   Time: PT30S

5. Transfer to mold

   Pour the gelatin mixture into a loaf pan, glass baking dish, or silicone mold of your choice. Tap gently on the counter to release any air bubbles.

   Time: PT2M

6. Chill until set

   Place the filled mold in the refrigerator and let it set for at least 2 hours, or until firm to the touch.

   Time: PT2H

   Temperature: 4°C

7. Cut and serve

   Remove the set gelatin from the mold, cut into bite‑size cubes or use a small cutter to make “jelly fries.” Serve plain or with a dollop of sugar‑free whipped cream.

   Time: PT5M
