Ingredients

Coconut Water Layer

  • 1 ¼ cups coconut water such as Maui & Sons or Zico
  • ¾ cup white sugar
  • 1 ½ teaspoons unflavored gelatin

Blackberry Juice Layer

  • 1 pint fresh blackberries
  • 1 cup water divided
  • ½ cup white sugar
  • 1 ½ teaspoons unflavored gelatin

Instructions

Coconut Water Layer

  • Spray 6 - 1/2 cup molds with cooking spray.  Set aside.
  • In a small saucepan add the coconut water, sugar and gelatin.  Bring to a simmer over medium-low heat and stir until the gelatin has dissolved.  Divide between the 6 molds and set on a small baking sheet.  Refrigerate for 3-4 hours or until firm.

Blackberry Juice Layer

  • In a small saucepan add the blackberries and 1/2 cup of cold water.  Bring to a boil over medium-high heat.  Cook berries for 10-15 minutes, breaking them up with the back of a spoon.  Set a fine meshed sieve over a medium bowl and push the berry juice through using a rubber spatula.  Continue to push the juice through the sieve until all that remains is pulp and seeds and discard.
  • In a small saucepan add 1/2 cup blackberry juice, 1/2 cup sugar and 1/2 cup water and gelatin.  Bring to a simmer over medium-low heat and stir until the gelatin has dissolved.  Remove from heat and allow to cool for 10 minutes.  Remove the molds from the refrigerator and carefully ladle the blackberry juice over the coconut water layer.  Return to the refrigerator and chill for 2-3 hours longer.  Remove from the refrigerator and place a serving plate over the mold and invert.  If the gelatin is sticking, you can use the water-bath method mentioned above.   Serve with fresh blackberries and fresh whipped cream if desired.
