To unmold (optional): Briefly dip the mold into warm tap water for a few seconds to loosen the gelatin. Invert onto a serving plate. If it doesn't release immediately, repeat the warm water dip for a few more seconds.
For a richer flavor, try using a flavored sparkling water instead of plain water.
To add a bit of crunch, stir in some chopped pecans or walnuts before refrigerating.
Garnish with fresh mint sprigs or a few pear slices before serving for an elegant presentation.
If you don't have a mold, a simple glass bowl works just as well.

Mar 10, 2025I was skeptical about the sugar-free gelatin, but it tasted great! I added a splash of the pear juice to the gelatin mixture for extra pear flavor.
