Pimm's Jelly.

Again, this was something devised for the Queen's jubilee - everyone loves jelly. But having a vegetarian in our cul-de-sac I tweaked the original recipe (from BBC Good Food)so instead of using gelatine, I used agar agar. So here it is! 


Becky stirring the mix.
Ingredients:
  • 200ml Pimms
  • 500ml sparkling lemonade
  • 4g agar agar


  1. Pour the Pimms into a large sauce pan (we used a pasta pan) and add the agar agar. Bring to the boil and keep stirring until the agar agar dissolves.
  2. Add the lemonade and bring to the boil again.
  3. Spoon the mixture into ramekins and leave to set in the fridge and chill overnight.
Keep stirring the mix until the agar agar dissolves completely in the Pimms.

I found using individual ramekins works better for this recipe than one large bowl or jelly mould as it sets quicker, but if you have time to leave the jelly mix for nearly 24-36 hours a jelly mould would work just as well.
