Description
This dr oz pink gelatin recipe is a simple pre meal routine made with unflavored gelatin, hot water, cold water or unsweetened tea, and a tiny splash of cranberry or pomegranate juice for a light pink color. You can sip it warm or chill it into a soft set cup to support fullness before meals.
Ingredients
1 tablespoon unflavored gelatin powder
1/2 cup hot water
1/2 cup cold water or unsweetened tea
1 to 2 teaspoons 100% pomegranate or cranberry juice (no added sugar)
Instructions
1. Pour 2 to 3 tablespoons of the cold water or tea into a cup, then sprinkle gelatin evenly over the top.
2. Let it sit for about 1 minute to bloom.
3. Heat the remaining liquid until hot but not boiling.
4. Pour the hot liquid into the bloomed gelatin and stir until fully dissolved and clear.
5. Stir in the juice until the mixture turns evenly pink.
6. Option A: Sip warm 15 to 30 minutes before a meal.
7. Option B: Pour into small cups or molds and chill 2 to 3 hours until set.
Notes
Use unflavored gelatin for the protein benefits and skip flavored mixes with added sugar.
Use 100% juice with no added sugar and keep it to 1 to 2 teaspoons for a light pink color.
Use one small portion before meals for portion control support, not as a meal replacement.
Store chilled gelatin covered in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
If you get clumps, bloom first and avoid boiling the liquid.
