Tips:
- Use fresh pineapple juice for the best flavor. Canned pineapple juice can be used, but it will not have the same fresh taste.
- If you don't have time to make the pineapple juice, you can use store-bought pineapple juice. Just make sure to use unsweetened juice.
- You can use any type of gelatin for this recipe. However, unflavored gelatin is the best choice because it will not add any additional flavor to the gelatin mold.
- Be sure to let the gelatin mold chill for at least 4 hours before serving. This will allow the gelatin to set properly.
- If you want to make the gelatin mold in advance, you can store it in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
