Ingredients
2 cups apple juice (100% juice, no alcohol)
2 cups apple cider (halal, non-alcoholic)
2 packets (0.25 oz each) unflavored gelatin (halal-certified)
1 box (3 oz) cherry or apple-flavored gelatin (halal)
1 teaspoon cinnamon powder
½ teaspoon lemon juice
½ cup granulated sugar (adjust to taste)
Optional: green or red food coloring (halal)
Preparation
Step 1: Bloom the Gelatin
Pour apple juice and apple cider into a large saucepan. Sprinkle unflavored gelatin evenly over the liquid. Let sit for 5 minutes to bloom.
Step 2: Heat the Mixture
Place the saucepan over low heat. Stir gently until the gelatin dissolves completely. Do not boil.
Step 3: Add Flavoring
Add flavored gelatin, sugar, cinnamon powder, and lemon juice. Stir continuously until fully dissolved and smooth. Taste and adjust sweetness if needed.
Step 4: Color and Pour
Add food coloring if desired. Pour mixture into silicone molds, mini cups, or a parchment-lined pan for cutting later.
Step 5: Chill to Set
Refrigerate for at least 3–4 hours, or until completely firm. Once set, remove from molds or cut into bite-sized drops.
