Hello Foodies! Here’s the coffee jelly recipe I used for my trending coffee sago. You can add coffee jelly to other types of desserts or drinks, or even enjoy it by itself. You can also add jelly to a mixture of half and half and condensed milk and enjoy it that way too.
Coffee Jelly Ingredients:
- 2 cups water
- 2 shots espresso: You can add an additional shot for a strong coffee tasting jelly. If you don’t have espresso, you can substitute it with instant coffee.
- 1/4 cup sugar (adjust to taste for desired sweetness)
- 2 tsp agar powder: Agar is a gelatinous substance created from red algae.
- Ice: You can add as much ice as you want
Instructions
In a saucepan, combine all the ingredients: water, espresso shots, sugar, and agar powder.
Place the saucepan over medium-low heat and whisk the mixture until the sugar and agar powder are fully dissolved.
Allow the mixture to simmer gently for a few minutes, ensuring everything is well combined and the agar activated.
Remove the saucepan from the heat and carefully pour the mixture into a heat-resistant container or Tupperware.
Let the mixture cool to room temperature before transferring it to the refrigerator
Allow the jelly to chill and set completely in the refrigerator for a few hours or until firm.
Once set, cut the coffee jelly into cubes and serve with your coffee sago or any other desired dish. I will link my coffee sago recipe here if you are interested! In the coffee sago recipe, I made a delicious dessert with coffee jelly, sago, nata de coco, and coffee milk; it was inspired by the popular dessert mango sago!
