What each ingredient does
- Acid fruit jelly
- Provides sweetness, fruit flavor, and acidity that give the drink its taste.
- Boiling water
- Melts the jelly so it dissolves fully into the liquid.
- Ice water
- Cools the mixture quickly and dilutes it to a drinkable strength.
The step that matters
Stir until the jelly is completely dissolved. Undissolved jelly stays as clumps and uneven sweetness. Dissolving it fully in the hot water gives a smooth, evenly flavored drink before the cold water is added.
