Ingredients:

1 envelope of unflavoured gelatine (7g powdered gelatine)
250ml orange juice, divided
6 strawberries, washed and hulled
1 ripe banana
250ml frozen vanilla yoghurt
6 large ice cubes

Method:

Add 60ml of the orange juice in a saucepan then sprinkle the gelatine over the top and set aside to stand for 1 minutes. After this time, place over low heat and cook gently, stirring constantly, until the gelatine has completely dissolved (about 2 minutes).

Combine the remaining orange juice, banana and vanilla yoghurt in a blender and process at high speed until smooth. Add the gelatine mixture and pulse until blended. Now add the ice cubes and process on high speed until completely smooth. Pour into tall glasses, garnish with halved strawberries and orange slices then serve.
