What each ingredient does
- Fruit jelly
- Provides sweetness and flavour, and sets lightly as it cools, giving the drink body.
The step that matters
Dissolve the jelly completely in the boiling water. Undissolved jelly granules will not blend into the drink and can leave gritty pieces. Full dissolving in hot water lets the gelling and sugar distribute evenly before the cold water is added.
