All Ingredients - Main Ingredients

  1. Icing Sugar (Powdered Sugar/Confectioners Sugar) 1/3 cup
  2. Bicarbonate of Soda (Baking Soda) 1 tablespoon
  3. Citric Acid 3 teaspoons
  4. Orange Jelly Crystals (Jell-O/Jelly) 1 (85g) box

🍳Tools You'll Need

  • Mixing bowl
  • Bowl

Step-by-Step Instructions

Step 1: Sift Dry Ingredients

Into a small bowl, sift 1/3 cup of icing sugar (also known as powdered sugar or confectioners sugar) and 1 tablespoon of bicarbonate of soda (baking soda) to ensure there are no lumps.

Step 2: Add Citric Acid

Add 3 teaspoons of citric acid to the bowl with the sifted ingredients.

Step 3: Add Jelly Crystals

Pour in the entire 85g box of orange jelly crystals (Jell-O/jelly) into the bowl.

Step 4: Mix Thoroughly

Using a spoon, mix all the ingredients together until they are completely combined and the mixture has a uniform color.

Step 5: Taste and Adjust

Take a small taste of the sherbet. If you prefer it sweeter, add a little more icing sugar. If you desire more tanginess, add a little more citric acid, mixing well after each addition.

Step 6: Serve

Serve the good old-fashioned sherbet with lollipops, hard candies, or a wet spoon for dipping. Enjoy the sweet, tangy, and fizzy flavor.

Step 7: Storage Tip

For convenient future enjoyment, divide any leftover sherbet into individual portions and store them in snap-lock bags in a cupboard.

Pro Tips

• Taste the sherbet after mixing and adjust sweetness by adding more icing sugar, or tanginess by adding more citric acid.

• Store leftover sherbet in individual portions in snap-lock bags in a cupboard for future enjoyment.

• Use lollipops, hard candies, or even a wet spoon for dipping into the sherbet.

Recipe Variations

• Experiment with different flavors of jelly crystals (Jell-O/jelly) to create various sherbet flavors.
