About


I wanted to take a spin on the jello we all know and love, you know…cherry, strawberry, grape, orange, among others. What about something more adult tasting? Like…coffee!
This recipe is really a method and is incredibly flexible. You can make green tea jello, or blueberry jello with blueberry juice. There are so many options, I love it! I chose coffee because I love the taste of coffee and I thought it would be fun to experiment.
