Serves 4

The flavor of this darkish green gelatin can be a little overpowering, but it works well when balanced with sweet, syrupy fruits like canned lychees.

1 can grass jelly

1 can lychees

1 small can mandarin orange sections

• Remove the grass jelly from the can, slice, and cut into cubes.

• Place the grass jelly cubes in a large bowl. Add the lychees and mandarin orange sections, and pour the syrup from the canned fruits over.

Grass Jelly Drink

A popular Southeast Asian drink consists of grass jelly cubes mixed with rock sugar. But, however you enjoy your grass jelly, it's important to neutralize its strong flavor with sugar, leaving you free to enjoy the slippery texture.
