Ingredients

3 cups orange juice
2.5 tbsp Perfect Bovine Gelatin
1 tbsp Acerola Vitamin C Powder
3 tbsp honey, divided (or more if you’d like)
1 can full-fat coconut milk (chilled for at least 2 hours in advance)

Instructions

Heat a pot or pan over medium-high heat and add 2 cups of orange juice in. Bring to a gentle boil, and remove from heat.
In a bowl, add 1 cup of orange juice. Mix together the gelatin and Acerola powder, then sprinkle on top of the orange juice. Let the powders dissolve into the juice, or mix them in fully.
Pour the hot orange juice into the cold orange juice, and stir to combine. Add 1.5 tbsp honey, and mix until dissolved. Taste to see if you’d like more honey added in. Pour into a dish and chill in the fridge until set (about 2 hours).
To make the coconut whip cream, take the chilled can of coconut milk out of the fridge. Open it, and scoop the firm coconut cream (about ½ cup) into a mixer bowl. Whip for 1-2 minutes on high, then add the honey and continue to whip until the coconut whip cream is fluffy. Taste the whip to see if you’d like more honey added in. Store in the fridge until you’re ready to use.
When the orange jello is firm, spread the coconut whip cream on top. Top with mini orange slices if desired. Serve, and enjoy!
