To prepare, you will typically need to boil water and dissolve the gelatin mix completely. Then, cold water is added, and the mixture is stirred well. For best results, it should be chilled in the refrigerator until firm. This process usually takes a few hours. You can pour the mixture into individual cups or a larger serving dish. Adding fresh fruit after the gelatin has set can enhance its flavor and texture.
