Ingredients
  

  • 250 ml fruit juice we used freshly squeezed orange juice
  • 1 tbsp agar agar powder
  • 2 tbsp maple syrup

Instructions
 

  • Start by placing your moulds in the freezer so they’re ready when the mixture is poured.
  • In a small saucepan, stir the agar agar and sweetener into the fruit juice until fully dissolved.
  • Place over medium heat and bring to a gentle boil, stirring constantly.
  • Let it simmer for about 5 minutes, until the mixture thickens slightly and looks glossy.
  • Remove from the heat and let it cool for a couple of minutes.
  • Carefully pour the liquid into the prepared moulds.
  • Transfer the moulds to the freezer and chill for about 5 minutes, just until the jellies are firm.
  • Pop them out and admire their jewel-like shine.
  • Store them in the fridge and enjoy within a few days.
