Mix 1 tablespoon of gelatin powder with 2–3 tablespoons of cold water in a small bowl. Let it sit for 5 minutes.

Heat the remaining water or herbal tea until boiling. Remove from heat and whisk in the bloomed gelatin until smooth.

Add the unsweetened cranberry or pomegranate juice, lemon juice, and pink salt if using. Stir well.

For warm drink: Pour into a mug and sip slowly over 10–15 minutes. For chilled cubes: Pour into a shallow dish or mold, refrigerate 2–3 hours until set, then cut into cubes.
