WINE BERRIES JELLO

Ingredients:
200ml white wine (Sauvignon Blanc if possible)
200ml hot water
150ml sparkling white grape juice or any grape juice (or apple juice if you prefer peach-flavoured gelatine)
2 packets of 170g grape-flavoured gelatine (or peach-flavoured Jell-O, available fromsupermarkets)
3 Tbs sugar, to taste
1 Tbs lemon juice
1 tsp agar agar powder (to firm up jelly)
100g strawberries, hulled and halved (or diced, depending on size of fruit and wine glass)
50g blueberries
50g raspberries(The combination of fresh fruit is up to individual taste. You can also use canned fruit or cocktail).

Method:
1. Wash fresh fruit in cold water, taking care not to bruise the berries and wipe dry with a paper towel. Leave aside.
2. Boil hot water, sugar and agar agar powder. Lower heat and stir in the gelatine until it is completely dissolved and mixture is clear. Take care not to boil it or you'll end up with a cloudy mixture.
3. Remove from heat. Gently stir in white wine and sparkling white grape juice to the gelatine mixture.
4. Add in the lemon juice. Pour mixture into wine glasses until about three-quarters full and drop in the mixed berries. Refrigerate for about four hours or until firm.
5. Serve with a dollop of ice cream and remaining berries if desired.
