Grass Jelly

Grass jelly can serve as a dessert or afternoon snack in hotweather. It is very refreshing, and can be extremely easy. We generallymix adequate grass jelly cubes with some lychees in juice or lightsyrup a little bit of ginger flavored syrup (to taste). We then add icecubes or chill it or serve right away. Either way, the ice melts andblends with the assorted juices to create a light and tasty 'soup.'
