For an extra burst of citrus flavor, consider adding a tablespoon of lemon or lime zest to the gelatin mixture. Ensure the gelatin is completely dissolved in the boiling water to avoid any grainy texture in the final product. If you prefer a less tangy salad, reduce the amount of orange juice and substitute with additional cold water. Garnish with fresh mint leaves or a sprinkle of shredded coconut for an elegant presentation.
