How to Make Strawberry Tapioca

  1. In a medium saucepan, combine 1 cup of small tapioca pearls, 1/4 teaspoon of salt, and 2 cups of water. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat.
  2. Once boiling, reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15-20 minutes, or until the tapioca pearls are translucent and have reached your desired chewiness. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 (3-ounce) package of strawberry gelatin (jello), 1/2 cup of granulated sugar, and 1 cup of boiling water until the gelatin and sugar are completely dissolved.
  4. Gently pour the dissolved gelatin mixture into the cooked tapioca. Stir well to combine.
  5. Add 2 cups of frozen strawberries (thawed and roughly chopped) to the tapioca mixture. Stir gently until the strawberries are evenly distributed.
  6. Allow the mixture to cool completely. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or until set.
  7. Once set, top generously with cool whip before serving. Enjoy!
