Ingredients
Grape Gelatin
- Ingredients
- 14 ozs seedless green and purple Grape (about 200 grams)
- 2 sheets white gelatin
- 1 ¼ cups light Grape juice
- 1 pc Cinnamon stick (about 4 cm long)
- 2 cloves
- 1 Star anise
- 4 ozs blanched almonds
- 2 tsps powdered sugar
- ¾ cup
Rinse grapes, remove from the stems and cut in half. Divide among 4 glasses or bowls.
Soak the gelatin in a bowl of cold water to soften.
Heat the grape juice with the cinnamon, cloves and star anise in a small pot.
Add the softened gelatin to the pan, stirring to dissolve. Remove from heat and allow to cool.
Pass grape gelatin through a fine sieve into a bowl and pour over the grapes, dividing evenly. Refrigerate until set, at least 4 hours.
Toast the almonds with the powdered sugar in a dry pan until golden brown. Pour in the milk and bring to a boil, then remove from heat. Let steep 30-40 minutes while mixture cools.
Pass the almond milk through a sieve into a tall vessel and beat with a milk frother to foam. Top each serving of grape gelatin with 1 tablespoon of foam and serve immediately.

Healthy, because
A real Schlaumacher dessert: Grapes contain plenty of glucose - the only sugar that our brain can immediately use as an energy replenishment.
Even smarter
Although the almonds release part of the aroma into the milk, they can still be used afterwards: Just let them dry and sprinkle them chopped into muesli or over fruit salad.
