Ingredients
- 1 liter natural squeezed orange juice, tangerine or both.

- Sugar (60gr), or the preferred honey or sweetener equivalent
Preparation
- We squeeze oranges or tangerines

- Put the gelatin leaves or sheets to hydrate in cold water for 5 to 10 minutes until the water dissolves and drains.
- In a heated saucepan without boiling, half the juice along with sugar or sweetener
- Mix the drained sheets into the scoop by adding the rest of the juice and mix it all together
- Pour the contents into the cups leaving to cool and once cooled we will put them in the fridge for at least 2-3 hours. When it cools down, it’s when it’s curdling.
