Sparkly Jelly...

Fed up of boring old jelly… but it's ZERO pro points… better than a cupcake (not really 'better' but 'better FOR you' than a cupcake… sigh…) but it's a bit like butternut squash soup… you can overdose on it… I'm actually craving salad weather… so c'mere, add a bit of fizz to the world… sparkly jelly! Soooo easy its not even funny! 

Two ingredients… sugar free jelly & 7up Free 

or whatever sugar free soft drink you like… 

Tangent… I've tried raspberry jelly with diet coke and 

if you're a fan of cherry coke, you'll love it! Play around with it… 

I have a friend who makes the orange jelly with diet orange soda every weekend its her treat and it satisfies that sweet tooth craving without massive calories! 

Put your jelly into a bowl and boil the kettle… 

Pour in enough boiling water to dissolve the granules … 

it should have the consistency of a gel…

Fill up to required level with your sugar free 7UP … 

Do it very slowly or you'll have a head on it like a pint of Guinness … 

Once you're sure it's totally dissolved then pour into your mould… 

fancy cocktail glasses, bowls, ice cube trays whatever takes your fancy … 

and experiment with the flavours and colours … 

I'm trying lime, lemon and orange for St. Patricks day!

Then into the fridge … 

Take it out a few minutes before you turn it out… 

et voila … sparkly jelly… simples …
