Southern Tea Gelee Fruit Salad
2 packets Knox Gelatin
½ cup cold water
3 cups hot tea
Sugar to taste
1-1/2 cups sliced peaches
1 cup blackberries
4 strawberries, sliced
- Brew tea and sweeten to taste. Chill 1/2 cup of tea. Soften the gelatin in the cooled tea then add the remainder of the warm tea and stir until the gelatin is completely dissolved.
- Prepare a loaf pan with a thin coat of vegetable oil. Pour a thin layer of tea into the bottom of the loaf pan and freeze until set, about 10 minutes.
- Arrange the fruit in the loaf pan, add the remaining gelatin/tea mixture, and chill until firm, at least 12 hours.
