Directions
Step 1
In a medium saucepan, combine the Tang breakfast drink powder, granulated sugar, and 4 cups of water.
Step 2
Heat the mixture over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the sugar and Tang powder are fully dissolved. Do not let it boil.

In a separate bowl, sprinkle the packets of unflavored gelatin over 1 cup of cold water. Let it sit for 5 minutes to bloom.

Once the gelatin has bloomed, add the gelatin mixture to the warm Tang mixture in the saucepan. Stir well until the gelatin is completely dissolved.
Step 5
Remove the saucepan from heat and let the mixture cool slightly for about 5 minutes.
Step 6
Carefully pour the mixture into a 9x13-inch glass dish or individual serving cups, depending on your preference.

Once set, cut the jelly into squares if using a dish, or serve directly from the individual cups. Enjoy!
