Green Tea Jelly – Sweet & Cool Drink for Spring/Summer

January 28, 2020 By Victoria

Jump to Recipe Jump to Video Print Recipe

A mild bitter-sweet milk tea that combines the flavor of Matcha, ground cinnamon, anise, and cardamom with the creamy sweetness of condensed milk. Jelly made from the sea then adds to boost up the fun and texture. Enjoy this recipe chilly cold for this spring and summer.

Green Tea Jelly

One of the things about milk tea is it’s easy to get addicted until you’re realizing how much you’ve been. Remember those cute and appealing cups from a boba tea shop? They’re always making you yearn for more the next time around.

The drink itself is not that hard to do, with a total of 10 to 15 active minutes max (not including the chilling time for jelly to set). The result is a beauty, so great that you could sip the whole thing with a larger size straw.

Iced Green Tea Jelly

Of course, you can make jelly with gelatin, agar agar… but in this case, I’m using carrageenan. This is due to Carrageenan is more elasticity as compared to agar and gelatin when making in thinner (more water) ratio. Gelatin can be substituted just fine if that’s what you have on hand.

This drink is best tasted cold on a mildly warm to hot day.
