Japanese Coffee Jelly image

Received this in email today when our heat index was 102F! It was so hot I did not even brew a pot of coffee this am! This gelatin recipe will replace coffee tomorrow - I listed it as a dessert but think I'll be having for breakfast! Will make as written first then try with Splenda (1:1 substitution). Three hours is chill time. Thank you, Ms. Bertha Robbards - this is going to be mighty refreshing!
