Minty Blueberry Peach Shiver

4 from 1 ratings

Fresh with juicy summer fruit and cooling mint, this juice-based gelatin fruit salad is a delicious throwback to childhood. Make it ahead for backyard barbecues, and feel free to substitute grapes or nectarines for the peaches and blueberries. (Note: Using vegan gelatin, the finished dessert will be less firm than with traditional gelatin.)

Ingredients

1 1/2 cup orange-peach-mango juice, preferably organic
1/2 cup crushed ice or small ice cubes
1 cup fresh blueberries
2 tablespoon finely chopped mint
2 peaches or nectarines, peeled and chopped
one 1-ounce package unflavored gelatin, such as knox, or two 0.3-ounce packages unflavored vegan gelatin, such as jel dessert

Directions

In a small pot, bring the juice just to a simmer over medium-high heat. Remove from the heat and whisk in the gelatin until dissolved. Transfer to a large heatproof bowl. Stir in the ice until completely dissolved, and then stir in the blueberries, mint, and peaches. Cover and chill until firm, 4-6 hours, or overnight.
