Watermelon jelly, a light dessert

It makes a good stomach and refreshes us. A watermelon jelly for dessert? We must take advantage of the fact that we are in full season for this wonderful fruit.

As we know that it has a high water content, we are going to prepare a homemade jelly.

I put the amount of gelatin that I used. Of course, I recommend that you read the instructions of the gelatin that you are going to use to check how many grams or sheets you need
