Recipe: Coffee Jelly

Coffee Jelly @ Yama Sushi
Homemade coffee jelly

Ingredients

8 oz water
1 tsp instant coffee (or cold brew coffee)
1 tsp unflavored gelatin powder
1 tbl sugar (optional)

Directions

1. In 8 oz cold water, add 1 rounded tsp instant coffee, sprinkle in 1 tsp gelatin, and (optionally) sugar. Stir and let sit for 3-5 minutes for gelatin to hydrate.
2. Place liquid in microwave for one minute on “high” to dissolve the gelatin. Liquid should not boil. About 160° is sufficient to dissolve gelatin.
3. Pour liquid into two serving bowls (4 oz. each), and place in fridge to chill and set gelatin.
4. Top with creamer and whipped cream before serving.

Note 1: Instead of instant coffee, cold brew coffee may be used. Starbucks cold brew coffee contains sugar, which may be preferable.
Note 2: Sugar in the coffee jelly makes the gelatin softer, and more pudding like.
