1 servings

Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
2 cups Cranberry juice 500 mL
2 cups Orange juice 500 mL
⅓ cup Sugar 75 mL
2 tablespoons Unflavoured gelatin; (2 envelopes) 25 mL
¼ cup Cold water 50 mL
4 Oranges 4
16 Tiny sprigs of mint 16
8 Sprigs mint 8
8 Strawberries 8

Directions

Place cranberry juice, orange juice and sugar in a medium saucepan and stir. Warm gently.

In a small saucepan, sprinkle gelatin over cold water and allow to rest 5 minutes. Warm gently until just melted.

Whisk melted gelatin into warm orange juice mixture. Simmer one minute. Do not allow mixture to boil.

Pour about ½ cup/125 mL of the orange juice mixture into 8 large martini or parfait glasses or wide mouth Champage glasses. Refrigerate about 2 hours.

Place remaining mixture into a large mixing bowl and refrigerate this also for about 2 hours or until syrupy but not yet set.

Meanwhile, peel oranges from top to bottom peeling away any pith. Section oranges by cutting out sections between membranes.

Spoon into semi-set mixture in glasses. Pour in remaining mixture. If it has set too much, simply warm it over hot water for a minute. Refrigerate a few hours until set.

Top each with a strawberry and a sprig of mint.
